.me is an Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) that has been assigned to Montenegro.
This follows Montenegro's June 3, 2006 declaration of independence from Serbia and Montenegro, which used the code YU.
The .me registry is operated by doMEn, which won a contract to do so after a bid process conducted by the government of Montenegro.
In addition to declaring .me independent of .yu, a new .rs domain is to be deployed for Serbian use.
Introducing .me
ICANN resolved[1] that .me be delegated to the Government of Montenegro, with the former .yu domain to be operated temporarily by the .rs domain registry, Serbian National Register of Internet Domain Names, until its eventual abolition on or before 30 September 2009.
On 11 September 2007, delegation of root name servers was approved by IANA[2], establishing .me. The .me domain became active on 24 September 2007 and a "Public Invitation for selection of the Agent for domain registration under the national Internet domain of Montenegro" was posted on 14 November. doMEn d.o.o. was selected as the new registry operator.
May 6th, 2008 - .me Registry - General Sunrise began for all eligible Trademark holders anywhere in the world.
On July 16, 2008, registration was made available for all .me domains at various registrars.
