So if you start your "Maverick release party" on 30 of october maybe this would be a great opportunity to meet each other. We're so excited to meet you and your country! :-) Many Greets from rainy Germany (temperature is about 6 degree Celsius - brrrrrr) Stephan Am 27.08.2010 14:31, schrieb Ahmed Toulan: <div class="im">> That's gr8 news! > > Sure hope to see you in Egypt when you come :) > I don't think we should make a new mailing list for this topic, > we should keep it here.
