[eurolisp] ECLM 2011 - we need you!
by Edi Weitz 08 Sep '11

08 Sep '11

Hi everybody, We'd like to remind everybody that it is still possible to register for the European Common Lisp Meeting 2011 in Amsterdam. We're sending this reminder because the number of registrations so far has been pretty low. In fact, it is far away from what we expected and used as the basis for our calculations. With 47 participants (as of September 7) we'll make a loss of almost 2,000 Euros and we'd need roughly 25 more registrations to not end up in the red. Maybe this email can convince at least some of those who haven't registered yet to change their minds. Or maybe you know someone you think you should forward this to. (Also, feel free to blog about it or use other means to disseminate this message.) More details about the ECLM can be found here: http://weitz.de/eclm2011/ We're looking forward to meeting all of you in October and we're still hoping to see at least as many fellow Lispers as in the last years. Arthur & Edi.

Re: [eurolisp] Registration is open

The company which is hosting my server weitz.de wants to move it to a different city in the night from Wednesday to Thursday. It should be up and running again in two days, but you never know... Just in case, the registration app itself can be reached at http://eclm.eurolisp.org/ and it's on a different machine, so it won't be affected by this relocation.

[eurolisp] work in Cambridge, UK: LispWorks / Social Network Analysis
by Nick Levine 18 Feb '11

18 Feb '11

Ravenbrook is looking for an experienced consultant interested in joining us to work on a mature Social Network Analysis desktop application. It consists of about 50k lines of Common Lisp, targeted at LispWorks for Windows. It's a heady mix of GUI (making heavy use of LispWorks' CAPI), graphical layout, analysis some of which gets fairly mathematical, and data mangling. This year's effort will focus on usability and in particular on the automation of repetitive tasks which we've identified as being particularly time-consuming for our end users. We'll be talking to Microsoft Word. The small print: contracts for this year's work are not yet in place. So we cannot be firm about offering you any work just yet. However we are very confident indeed in getting the business at some point in the next couple of months. Whatever the start date, the work must be complete before the end of January 2012. We can be hopeful about a further year's development after that but, obviously, no promises. In short, what we're trying to do now is to locate the person we want to work with so that we can make a fairly prompt start once we get our go-ahead, and on the understanding that there may well be no more than a year's work on offer. However there might also be an opportunity to get involved with our other consulting work, or the Memory Pool System, or even video game development. Essential requirements: * you will mostly need to work at our office in Cambridge, UK * you need to be available to start work at about a month's notice * you need to be comfortable collaborating in a small team * we want the person we work with to be highly motivated, client focussed, and reliable Do get in touch. Please note: Generic CVs and resumes as Word document attachments will be trashed. Use plain text to explain why you might be good for us. Or by all means write to arrange a phone call to discuss the project. Thanks! Nick Levine Ravenbrook Limited www.ravenbrook.com lisp-job(a)ravenbrook.com
