[ The Types Forum (announcements only), http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ]
SPLASH and its constituent conference (and predecessor) OOPSLA typically include a fair number of type system papers. OOPSLA and SPLASH are no longer focused explicitly on objects, so a broad variety of type systems work would be welcomed - Jonathan Aldrich
