Hi,
I see this list has been quiet for a while, but maybe people are still subscribed... I was wondering if there's anyone in the Seattle area who's using Lisp (or any other functional language) either professionally or on some medium- to large-sized project, that would let me come watch you work for a couple hours. I'm a computer science grad student from Oregon State, here in Seattle for the summer on a Microsoft internship, doing a human factors kind of study about how functional programmers go about debugging. There's been a lot of research into how imperative programmers do their thing, but hardly any real-world study of FP programmers, so I think the results could provide interesting data for future developers of debugging tools. Anyway, if you're interested, there's a blog post about it at http://blogs.msdn.com/dsyme/archive/2008/07/18/help-with-study-of-functional... (Don Syme's blog; he's the inventor of F#, MS's version of OCaml). If you think you might fit the profile I'm looking for please let me know; I'd really appreciate your help.
Thanks, Chris Bogart 425-538-3562 t-chribo@microsoft.commailto:t-chribo@microsoft.com
