Bill Stoddart asked me to forward the following to "concatenative".
I wish I could attend myself.
If I had known about it earlier, I would have encouraged somebody
from the group to present a paper about Joy, with liberal help from me.

> CALL FOR PAPERS
>
> Forth is a simple postfix programming system which is able to
> provide high integrity software through intensive re-use of
> components and ease of interactive testing. Forth prioritises
> extensibility over language features in a way that allows
> programmers to provide simple but poweful abstractions for
> specific problem domains. Its applicability ranges over
> interactive programming of small microcontrollers, powerful
> visual development environments, the programming of distributed
> agents communicating via open protocols, and system
> configuration using the IEEE Standard "Open Boot" which is
> used to provide "plug and play" style features on Power PC's,
> Sun Workstations and PowerMacs.
>
> EuroForth welcomes articles on:
>
> Forth applications and language extensions.
>
> Open protocols and standards, including TCP/IP, HTTP, XML...
>
> Virtual machine application and design.
>
> Stack based architectures.
>
> System configuration and Open Boot.
>
> Other topics likely to be of interest to an extensible language
> community.
