Minutes of the Mini DASG meeting held in Doha-Qatar on Friday, 28 March 2008.

The following decisions were taken unanimously.
1.
The Scientific programme was approved.
2.
The members congratulated Dr Abdulla Hamaq on the launch of DASG website on Wednesday March 26, 2008 during the press conference.

The press was present in large numbers and the event was given very good coverage by the local newspapers.
3.
It was decided that as per item 1.1 of the DASG constitution, only those persons who have become members of DASG by 15th April 2008, will be entitled to cast vote at the DASG elections on 18 October 2008.
4.
The next DASG conference will be held in Qatar in 2010. Dr Abdulla Hamaq will be the Chairman of the local organising committee.
