[toronto-lisp] toronto-lisp Digest, Vol 39, Issue 2

[Dave Cooper]

Dear All,

I just changed my mailing list settings as I was on Digest setting and
didn't see this until today (no reason to be on Digest for
toronto-lisp, the volume isn't so huge!)

Anyway I am still open to present/discuss on the issues Paul lists
below in future meetings, either in person or through Skype.

My Best,

 -dave

If someone could bring a laptop with a full size screen, Dave could do a skype screen-share and demo his GDL product - which is a very interesting bundled product consisting of Allegro plus a bunch of in-house and 3rd party libraries that creates custom CAD-like engineering environments for various industries (for example, the automotive industry).
