You have probably heard the slogan: "ChiliPLoP: A different kind of PLoP."
(Probably from Linda Rising!) But how is it different?
ChiliPLoP is organized around a set of Hot Topics, which are small
workshops of 4-8 people. Each Hot Topic is just that, a topic of
current interest. ChiliPLoP gives folks a chance to get together
in a great working environment -- the Lutheran Retreat Center in
Carefree, Arizona -- for several days of intense, deeply satisfying
work on a hot topic. Each Hot Topic's participants share an
interest in patterns and in the topic, so you have an opportunity
to forge new collaborations while making concrete progress on the
project at hand. But ChiliPLoP is different not just in its content, but in its
entirety. The conference offers an environment of creativity and
relaxed intensity.We currently have three Hot Topics on the books:
- "Design for Maintainability - Maintainability by Design"
- "Elementary Patterns and their Role in Instruction"
- "Patterns of XML"... with a fourth Hot Topic (Security Patterns) still in process.

for more information. The last day for early registration is
listed as tomorrow, February 15, though we may be able to be
flexible through the end of the week if you are a latecomer to
considering the conference. We'd love to have you join us!---- Eugene
