[ncc-regional-middle-east] More Contacts, More Synchronization, More Cooperation

Dear All,
First of all I would like to thank Mr. Alireza for this initiative, the
email was sent on 19/2/2006 till today I have seen more than 30 replay
to this email " 3/4/2006", representing most of the countries in the
Middle east region, from the details of the individual we can see that
the list consists of highly competent members in the Internet
technologies in general.

Now we need to ask our self what is next, what is the individual
expectation from this list ?

I would like to here your view of what is next what are your expectation
for this list?

I hope we will see active participation from the members in answering
the above question, in the same level and motivation "if not better"  as
what we have seen in introducing our contacts.

Best Regards,

Saleem Al-Balooshi
