History
The .mw domain was redelegated to Malawi SDNP in 2002, as documented in an IANA report from August 12, 2002. Since then, the management has remained with SDNP, which operates out of Blantyre. The technical and administrative contacts have been consistent, with Dr. Paulos B. Nyirenda serving as the administrative contact for many years.
