New, Improved Agenda
Here is an outline of my idea of the agenda we should use for the
meeting:
Sunday Night:
Registration and intense lobyying
Monday, December 9
8:30am Welcome, registration, and coffee
(Registration information will used for updating the mailing
lists, possible dunning for expenses unless I can sweet talk
DARPA into fronting some money for this meeting, and for making
sure that the groups are represented.)
9:00am Charter Discussion
Noon Lunch. You are on your own for this.
1:30pm Charter/Validation Discussion
6:00pm Dinner (Intense Lobbying and Discussions)
Tuesday
8:30am Coffee
9:00am Charter/Validation/ANSI etc Discussion
12:00 Lunch. You are on your own.
1:30pm Object-oriented programming
6:00pm Dinner
Wednesday
8:30am Coffee
9:00am Windows
12:00 Lunch. You are on your own.
1:30pm Windows/Errors/Varia
5:00pm Hit the Road
During the Charter discussion, the following topics will be discussed:
Fahlman's Proposals
Inclusion of the recent minor changes and errata to the
Common Lisp specification
Publishing problems - Copyright, additions to the book
Validation
Real standardization
During the object oriented programming session, Symbolics will present
some the developments going on there with respect to flavors. Xerox will
present their plans for CommonLoops testing using an implementation that
they have been working on. I expect that the discussions will focus more
closely on the methods and plans for evaluating the various proposals than
on the detailed technical merits of the proposals.
During the Windows discussion proposals can be presented along with
implementation plans.
For people who would like to make presentations, here are some guidelines:
1. Overhead or 35 millimeter slides are OK
2. Let me know that you want to make a presentation
as well as why a formal presentation is necessary.
3. If you want to include a handout, make at least 50 copies
(that's about 1 per group).
4. Try to limit your presentation to 30 minutes, maximum. I
will have a large hook.
