From fahree at gmail.com Wed Nov 7 05:42:34 2012 From: fahree at gmail.com (=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Far=E9?=) Date: Wed, 7 Nov 2012 00:42:34 -0500 Subject: [boston-lisp] Next Meeting: 2012-11-20 at Google, Huang Jianshi Message-ID: Dear Boston Lispers, our next meeting will be on November 20, at a new location, at Google at 3 Cambridge Center next to Kendall Square Station. Jianshi Huang who is visiting from the West Coast will talk about his experience with Lisp in China, Japan, Chile and now in a US startup. I'm discussing specifics right now. Marc Battyani and I will probably give a quick summary of our impressions of ILC'2012 in Kyoto last October (Marc, are you OK with it?) Other lightning talkers are welcome to join in, either by contacting me in advance or volunteering on the spot. I'll issue an official announcement when I have all the details. Incidentally, at ILC, I was suckered into joining the board of the ALU, together with SANO Masatoshi, Robert "Quadrescence" Smith and Marc Spitzer, replacing EvW, KH, DR, JJ who retired. I also started an initiative to consolidate CL libraries, see http://fare.livejournal.com/169346.html BTW, Marc are you still up for giving a talk? What about December 18th or 19th? I'm always looking for speakers for next year. Any one up to it? Is there someone I should be inviting from the area? NB: Tuesday is rumored to gather more attendance, but the downside is that Mary Chung is closed on Tuesdays. And I don't think we're going to get corporate sponsorship for the food, at least not this time. So we'll have to find another place for food. Probably CBC. ??? ?

Sorry but I'm going to Paris on Dec 16th but would be OK for either before or in January.
