[lisp-hh] Meetings 4 und 5
Moin! Nach dem sehr interessanten und erfolgreichen Amsterdam-Meeting (Hi Arthur!) würde ich gerne etwas ähnliches auch in Hamburg hinkriegen. Damit Leute, die von weiter weg kommen, nicht zu viel Geld und Zeit investieren müssen, sollten wir damit aber noch etwas warten. Arthur meinte, und ich stimme ihm zu, daß einmal pro Quartal wohl eine gute Frequenz für ein "großes" Lisp-Meeting wäre. Damit würde es auf Januar/Februar hinauslaufen, ich präferiere aber Anfang März, weil dann die Autofahrer hoffentlich etwas bessere Chancen haben und Hamburg evtl. auch besser aussieht. (Als Lokalpatriot sollte man den touristischen Aspekt nicht ganz außer acht lassen... :) Um die Wartezeit zu überbrücken vielleicht vorher noch ein "kleines" Meeting? Im November? Vorschlag: 1. Übernächstes Meeting in Hamburg Anfang März an einem Sonntag. Vorträge diverser Lisp-Celebrities, u.a. wohl Christophe Rhodes, Luke Gorrie und Arthur Lemmens, vielleicht auch Mario Mommer. Ggf. am Samstagabend gemeinsames Abendessen der bereits Anwesenden irgendwo auf dem Kiez ("Abendmahl" oder sowas). Ort: Ich suche noch - aber etwas, was zentraler liegt und etwas netter ist als der Landesjugendring. 2. Nächstes Meeting am 14.11. um 14 Uhr am selben Ort (LJR) wie beim letzten Mal, falls niemand grundsätzliche Einwände gegen Ort und Zeit hat (und ich den Raum für diesen Tag reservieren kann). Anschließend irgendwo essen gehen. Da es in letzter Zeit ein paar Anfragen in diese Richtung gab, würde ich vorschlagen, daß wir (zumindest auch) was für "Newbies" anbieten. Ich könnte z.B. bei Interesse ein bißchen demonstrieren, wie man mit SLIME arbeitet. Dann wäre ich endlich mal gezwungen, mir das selbst genauer anzusehen... :) Andere Ideen/Vorschläge für Vorträge, Demos undsoweiter? Frage, Wünsche, Beschwerden? Vielleicht hat auch jemand Lust, bei der Organisation mitzuhelfen? Grüße, Edi. PS: Daß es ein "kleines" Meeting werden soll, sollte natürlich niemanden von außerhalb davon abhalten, vorbeizukommen. Sooo klein soll es dann ja auch nicht werden.

Hi Edi! Thanks for your share in making the Amsterdam meeting "interessant und erfolgreich". How's the .NET stuff going? Still showing message-boxes? ;-)

Sounds good to me. But what's "der Kiez"? Is it the most interesting part of Hamburg?

Sounds good too. I'll try to be there.

I just started with SLIME, so I'm definitely interested in learning more about it.

I'll see if I can find some more Lispniks in the Netherlands who want to come with me. Arthur

Haven't touched it since - no time. I guess it's still able to show message boxes and crash afterwards... :)

Depends on what you're interested in... :) It's the area around the "Reeperbahn" in St. Pauli. Apart from being a fairly famous red light district it also has some nice clubs and restaurants.
Sounds good too. I'll try to be there.
Great!

Yes, that would be nice. Cheers, Edi.

I'd love to come. Especially since I didn't really get a chance to meet most of the participants last time. I'm not sure yet if I can make it though. I have preliminary exams the week after the meeting, and if they happen to start on Monday then I'd better not come home late from Hamburg the day before. Otherwise I should be fine. Can I come with you and Ernst again, Arthur? Kind regards, Dirk Gerrits

Okay, I just checked. I have a preliminary exam on Monday 15 November at 9:00, so I'm afraid I can't come the 14th. :( Regards, Dirk Gerrits
Of course I will do my best to be there! As far as selection of a saturday evening venue is concerned: I have complete trust in Edi :-) Ernst

Very good. Unfortunately, I just heard that the room we had last time isn't available on November 14. We have to choose one of the following sundays. I'll have to re-check with the people who give a talk. Sorry for that. But maybe Dirk can come in this case. (Can you forward this to him? I'm not subscribed to the BeNeLux mailing list.)

You better have... :) Cheers, Edi.
Hi Edi,

I don't know which alternatives you're considering, but I can't come on November 21st (it's my birthday).
I'll have to re-check with the people who give a talk.
Any information about that? Mario Mommer is interested in parallel Lisps and just noticed that Lothar Hotz has done something interesting in that respect (http://kogs-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~hotz/). Lothar seems to be from Hamburg, so maybe he'd like to talk about this at the meeting?

That would be nice.

I don't think that's necessary. AFAIK he's subscribed to this list. Arthur

Ooops, we should try to avoid this weekend, then.
Any information about that?
Well, currently it looks like we have Pascal Costanza about AspectL (if he's available for the new date) and me about SLIME. I also talked with Mario Mommer but he hasn't replied yet.

Good idea. I just phoned him and he's interested. He even offered to provide a room at the university and to contact some other Lispers like Ralf Moeller of Lisp Machine Museum fame. We'll see. I'm afraid finding a date for the next meeting will be harder than I thought. I should have checked the rooms first. Sorry for that. (Actually, I had expected some more feedback from the Hamburg Lispers. But as usual, there wasn't any... :) Cheers, Edi.

You could consider doing what I did in Amsterdam: just pay for a room in a hotel somewhere and split the costs among the participants. Arthur

But how did you get the bodyguards and the go-go girls? Were they included? Looks like we'll have to go to the "Reeperbahn" in November already... :) Edi.

count me in on any date, any location. -- Engelke Eschner engelke@tekai.org http://www.tekai.org/

As far as I can tell at this point, any sunday in late October / November / early December should be fine, except 14 November. My birthday is on Tuesday 30 November, but that won't stop me from coming the 28th if there happens to be a meeting. ;)

Yes I'm subscribed to the BeNeLux, Cologne, and Hamburg Lisp mailing lists. Any other Western European Lisp mailing lists I should know about? :) Kind regards, Dirk Gerrits
