From marek at xivilization.net Wed Feb 4 20:37:52 2009 From: marek at xivilization.net (Marek Kubica) Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 21:37:52 +0100 Subject: [munich-lisp] Wiki page Message-ID: <20090204213752.693b693a@halmanfloyd.lan.local> Hi, I finally created a wiki page for our user group and filled it with some content: Yes, I know that this is a Scheme wiki and I know that the majority of users are CL users. But the schemewiki is actively maintained by Anton van Straaten (he host Lambda the Ultimate, too), hosted on some server that gets backupped daily so I think the site is in good hands. After the ALU wiki debacle, I would like to be sure that the site is going to stay. Cliki seems to be problematic, too Oh, and the wiki software is written in Lisp. If we'd need more, Anton told me that we could also get a MediaWiki instance on a subdomain (or a domain, if we pay for it) hosted by him. I don't think that's neccessary ATM, but it's good to have an option. regards, Marek From tcr at freebits.de Wed Feb 4 21:14:55 2009 From: tcr at freebits.de (Tobias C.

I'm asking because I assume that updates to the Wiki won't happen on a regular basis and hence it would be nice if we had the possibility to stay up-to-date, for instance by using RSS. Does anybody have an idea or even better a solution for that?

Thank you for that hint, I'll give it a try.

There is an RSS feed for the whole wiki: As the wiki is not too active, it might be ok to just subscribe to that. > Does anybody have an idea or even better a solution for that? Extending WiLiKi could be another possibility :) regards, Marek From christoph.senjak at web.de Thu Feb 5 12:51:16 2009 From: christoph.senjak at web.de (christoph.senjak at web.de) Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2009 13:51:16 +0100 Subject: [munich-lisp] Wiki page In-Reply-To: <498AC4E9.8070305@in.tum.de> References: <20090204213752.693b693a@halmanfloyd.lan.local> <87vdrp3nw0.fsf@freebits.de> <498AC4E9.8070305@in.tum.de> Message-ID: <9e4493f70902050451i137ba60cg273b4d56cf898c3@mail.gmail.com> Hello. 2009/2/5 Alexander Lehmann : > Tobias C.

I also would like to have a feed for that. But until someone provides it, I use what I always use for sites not providing one, a Firefox-Extension called "Update Scanner" - if you happen to use Firefox, you could use it (it is also in general useful). From didier at lrde.epita.fr Tue Feb 24 13:10:43 2009 From: didier at lrde.epita.fr (Didier Verna) Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2009 14:10:43 +0100 Subject: [munich-lisp] [CFP] 6th European Lisp Workshop, July 06, 2009 Message-ID: +------------------------------------------------------------+ | CALL FOR PAPERS | | 6th European Lisp Workshop | | July 6, Genova, Italy - co-located with ECOOP 2009 | +------------------------------------------------------------+ Important Dates =============== Submission deadline: April 08, 2009 Notification of acceptance: May 08, 2009 ECOOP early registration deadline: May 20, 2009 6th European Lisp Workshop: July 06, 2009 Please note that registration must be done with ECOOP itself. For more information visit http://elw.bknr.net/2009 Contact: Didier Verna, didier at lrde.epita.fr 2009 Special News ================= This year, and for the first time, the workshop proceedings will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Also, the workshop will feature interactive tutorial/demo/coding sessions (see below). Overview ======== "...Please don't assume Lisp is only useful for Animation and Graphics, AI, Bio-informatics, B2B and E-Commerce, Data Mining, EDA/Semiconductor applications, Expert Systems, Finance, Intelligent Agents, Knowledge Management, Mechanical CAD, Modeling and Simulation, Natural Language, Optimization, Research, Risk Analysis, Scheduling, Telecom, and Web Authoring just because these are the only things they happened to list." -- Kent Pitman Lisp, one of the eldest computer languages still in use today, is gaining momentum again. The structure of Lisp makes it easy to extend the language or even to implement entirely new dialects without starting from scratch, making it the ideal candidate for writing Domain Specific Languages. Common Lisp, with the Common Lisp Object System (CLOS), was the first object-oriented programming language to receive an ANSI standard and retains the most complete and advanced object system of any programming language, while influencing many other object-oriented programming languages that followed. This workshop will address the near-future role of Lisp-based languages in research, industry and education. We solicit contributions that discuss the opportunities Lisp provides to capture and enhance the possibilities in software engineering. We want to promote lively discussion between researchers proposing new approaches and practitioners reporting on their experience with the strengths and limitations of current Lisp technologies. The workshop will have two components: there will be formal talks, and interactive turorial/demo/coding sessions. Papers ====== Formal presentations in the workshop should take between 20 minutes and half an hour; additional time will be given for questions and answers. Suggested topics include (but are not limited to): - Experience reports / Case studies - Educational approaches - Software Evolution - Development Aids - Persistent Systems - Dynamic Optimization - Implementation techniques - Hardware Support - Efficiency / Distribution / Parallel programming - Macro-, reflective-, meta- and/or rule-based development approaches - Protocol Meta-programming and Libraries - Context-Oriented, Domain-Oriented and Generative Programming Interactive Tutorial/Demo/Coding Sessions ========================================= Additionally, we invite less formal talks in the form of interactive tutorial/demo/coding sessions. The purpose of these sessions is to both demonstrate and receive feedback on any interesting Lisp system, either stable or under development. Being less formal than technical paper presentations, it is expected that these sessions be highly interactive. Submission Guidelines ===================== Potential contributors are encouraged to submit: - a long paper (around 10 pages) presenting scientific and/or empirical results about Lisp-based uses or new approaches for software engineering purposes, - a short essay (5 pages) defending a position about where research, practice or education based on Lisp should be heading in the near future, - a proposal for an interactive tutorial/demo/coding session (1-2 pages) describing the involved library or application, and the subject of the session. Submissions should be mailed as PDF to Didier Verna (didier at lrde.epita.fr) before the submission deadline.
