Hi all,
Here's the meeting notice for the lispvan March meeting:
Topic: DSL's and Lisp Work
Presenter: Coby Beck
Date: Thursday, March 23, 2006
Time: 7pm - 10pm (or whenever)
Venue: Think!, 4512 West 10th Ave., Vancouver
Summary: Coby will be presenting an overview of a Domain Specific
Language for describing the user requirements of a database
application. He'll also describe (with no regard for the line between
the intention and the reality ;) the process whereby this language is
processed and an application (complete with documentation and
installation scripts) is generated.
He will preface the topic with the tale of how he came to be working
with (and on) this application, while living in Vancouver and working
for a company in Tasmania, Australia. This will be an interesting story
about how he managed to land one Lisp job after another in a world of
Java and C#.
Additional details are available on my blog:
http://bc.tech.coop/blog/060309.html
Mark your calendars & I'll see you on March 23rd!

Sounds great, I only wish I still lived in the area!
Is anyone recording or filming the talk?

We try to record the lispvan talks (conditions permitting) . Assuming
no technical difficulties, I'll be posting a link and summary after the
meeting.

I assume he prefers the LispWorks editor/environment.

Certainly a good enough reason. I was half joking ;-)
Is the GUI stuff all done using lispworks' Capi?
