Also, on Thursday, August 30th 2012 we'll have Eli Barzilay present on Hygienic Macros for Beginners and Power Users. [Pavel, can we book the Star room that evening?]
Finally, you may have seen that the deadline for submissions at ILC'2012 has been moved back about three weeks. I hope you contribute something and/or we meet in Kyoto! [I'm submitting an article on lisp-interface-library.] http://international-lisp-conference.org/2012/index.html

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.
