    mea Are you looking for the right resource to help you with Silverlight workshops, PHP on Windows seminars, and deep drive training Visual Studio 2010?  Here’s a list of who’s who on the Developer Platform & Evangelism (DPE)  team in the Middle East & Africa (MEA) – feel free to contact me directly if you need additional information on the DPE team in MEA regarding anything to do with the web. This is not a comprehensive list. Instead it focuses mostly on the team that focuses on web strategy. I have included blogs from Commercial Software Initiative (CSI), Communications Sector (CS), Small and Midmarket Solutions and Partners Group (SMS&P), Server and Tools Business (STB), Enterprise and Partner Group (EPG) when appropriate.

    Ideally this should be a map that looks like the US NorthEast DPE group. Jim O’Neil had kindly provided me with the source code for this, although I am also toying with the idea of setting it up as a Bing collection.
