We’ve been on hiatus here at NED Nama for a bit. It had to do with our Editor having some catching up to do, and some organizational work to be done.
The good news, as you will see in the immediate future includes:
- NED Alumni Association of Silicon Valley (NEDians SV) is being formalized as an organization.
- NED Alumni Association of Southern California (NEDAASC) is coming to fruition, too.
- Two academic competitions are being held at NED (TechElite08 and SPEC2008), and which we’re hoping to get regular updates on.
- … more and regular information that you, our readers will send in…right?

Attention all students at NED University:
If NED and IPv6 both strike a chord with you, please get in touch with Dr Abdul Azeem Siddiqui and Mr Asad Arfeen at the university. Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) is in the process of forming an IPv6 Focus Group to establish an experimental IPv6 network in Pakistan across various public universities. They have approached NED university for (enthusiastic) volunteers for the project that has sufficient budgets to remain interesting. The communication has been extended by Dr Shafaat Bazaz, Foreign Professor (HEC) Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute of Engineering Sciences and Technology.
It is a great opportunity to establish the lead of NED in important subject areas of our times. There is a full army of technologists belonging to NED serving the local industry (and outside Pakistan) which the volunteers will find with them in this effort. Go ahead!

All,
I thought it to be interesting to put up the official Calendar of events for this year set up by the Office of Student Affairs at NED. Then we can keep track of the events, and current students other folks can get the pictures or write an event report on each of those. That would be really interesting for us alumni.
Here’s the calendar, taken directly from the NED University website (click on the calendar to see it in full size):
