Hi Mustafa,

Thank you for expressing an interest in setting up a GNOME Pakistan 
Community. It's nice to see you so passionate about GNOME!

You can find a lot of useful information about how to start and run a 
local GNOME community at http://live.gnome.org/UserGroups

Besides, the gugmasters mailing list [1] and GNOME.Asia groups [2] are 
the right places for you to contact, please do subscribe to the two 
mailing lists and we can further discuss!

Gugmasters mailing list is for a place for people who are interested to 
build a local GNOME user groups to discuss.

While GNOME.Asia Group aimed at growing the GNOME community in Asia. I 
am a core member of this group. We have members from China, Hong Kong, 
Taiwan, India, Vietnam, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, etc. it would 
be nice if we can have representatives from Pakistan as well!  We have 
been also helping local communities to start and grow their GNOME 
communities, we can definitely put you in touch with other Asian Gugs 
(GNOME User Groups). Besides, we are hosting our forth Summit in India 
early April, please find more information in our gnome.asia site.
