[eurolisp] Opinions needed...

[Pascal Costanza]

Hi everyone,

The deadline for workshop proposals for next year's ECOOP is  
approaching soon. I am considering organizing another European Lisp  
and Scheme workshop at ECOOP'06. However, the "competition" is very  
strong next year. On the one hand, there will probably be a European  
Common Lisp meeting again around April, and on the other hand it  
seems that the International Lisp Conference '06 will also be in  
Europe around September/October. An ECOOP workshop would be in the  
first week of July.

So I wonder: Is the European Lisp community strong and interested  
enough in three big events in one year, or would it be better to stay  
focused on fewer events to make them more successful? More  
concretely, would it be a better idea to skip an ECOOP workshop next  
year, but only do it again in 2007 when the ILC will probably be in  
the US again?

Any opinion, no matter how bold or moderate, is highly appreciated.


Thanks in advance,
Pascal
