Dear Wiki friends,
Greetings!
I received an message from Mr. Tanweer Morshed, a fellow Wikipedian from
Bangladesh (here is link to his wikitionary link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tanweer_Morshed) that he is in Nepal. He
asked me if he can meet us from the members of Nepali Wikipedia community
while he is in Kathmandu.
So, I am planning for a informal chat meet with Mr. Tanweer this evening.
Most probably we will meet in Himalayan Java, Thamel at around 6:00 PM. So,
if someone is around or is free for a cup of coffee please do join us at
Thamel. For final location and direction, please do call me for at my
mobile number is below.

Please remember Nepal Bhasha is spoken by Newars
Nepali (the national language of Nepal), or khas bhasha is spoken in a lot of places in India, Nepal, Burma, Bhutan etc.
The name Nepal and,Nepali was originally used by people in Kathmandu valley before king prithvi narayan Shah won Kathmandu.
Before that although the Nepali language was spoken in a broader region ranging from east of Asham (now a state of India), similarly in the west to nainital.
Newars lost the war, but still refer themselves as Nepali and refer their own calendar as Nepal sambat, language as Nepal Bhasha. People still refer Kathmandu as Nepal.
GIST: Nepal Bhasha is spoken by Newars. new.wikipedia.org
Nepali is: ne.wikipedia.org.
Please correct if I missed something,
