OK, so it's a bit late to organize a full Boston Lisp Meeting for July. Instead, let's just have a lightning talk extravaganza Tuesday next week 2012-07-24, at 6pm. Pavel, can we reserve the Star Room that evening? Otherwise, we'll find another room... Lightning talk format: You have 5 minutes to speak. One ding at 4 minutes to warn you, and one gong at 5 minutes and you must stop talking. Then 2 minutes for questions while the next speaker plugs in his computer. Rehearse early, rehearse often -- you can rehearse 6 times in half an hour! I'm candidate for one lightning talk on a few cool hacks made possible with recent ASDF releases. Can you email me to submit me your lightning talk proposals? PS: many people have expressed interest in a recording of Kalman Reti's talk. What we have is not perfect but it will hopefully be of interest to you. Inaudible questions have been cut out. http://people.csail.mit.edu/reti/SymbolicsTalk28June2012.m4v https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Bw4Wz8Ir0pl1cmNRaHYwdU1wdXM —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org The politicians have a most touching faith in technology — that it can make up for any dumb thing the politicians decide to do. — John McCarthy
