FWIW, I believe BayLISA is planning/hoping to have a speaker at one of
our monthly meetings soon. (That's SF Bay area:
http://www.baylisa.org/. Anyone in the area at the time is welcome to
attend -- no charge. Meetings are on the 3rd Thursday of the month,
starting at 7:30 PM. They've been held in Santa Clara recently, though
that's in a state of flux at the moment.)
>From the discussion surrounding the matter, I gathered that InterMezzo
was (in some sense) a continuation of the Coda work -- that (some of)
the same folks are involved, among other things.
Cheers,
david
