[Reply-To set to Haskell-Cafe] At http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/AmeroHaskell is a page for a proposed Haskell meeting originally aimed for the south eastern United States. Quite a few people registered interest, but few of them were in the SE. This email is to prompt any more interest in such a meeting without any fixed geographical locale. To get an idea of what it would be like, it would be something along the lines of http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/AngloHaskell
Anyone interested in an Haskell meeting anywhere in America mark your interest and what region would be good for you. Anyone who could provide a venue would also be highly appreciated. It may well end up being AmeroHaskells with several meetings in different regions. However, to put things in motion for something concrete at all, we're hoping to put together a meeting taking place in the Portland area as that seems most convenient to the most people who had registered interest in AmeroHaskell and an easy place to find a venue. In that vein, while no plans have been made, something aimed for the January/February time-frame and probably hosted by Galois, if they are willing, has been discussed. The event would probably be a few days long and would involve some informal (and perhaps impromptu) talks and hanging out, getting to know each other as more than an IRC handle, and some cooperative hacking. Again, see the AngloHaskell page for an idea. Anyone who is interested in presenting a talk about anything they are doing or are interested in in Haskell or Haskell-related topics please suggest that on the wiki page or reply here! Admittedly a January/February time-frame does not provide a lot of head time, but the talks are aimed at a friendly chat tone rather than a formal presentation. Feel free to bring your half-baked ideas. _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list Haskell@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
