Hi everybody,
this is a reminder for the meeting of the MSLUG taking place tonight.
What: Montreal Scheme/Lisp User Group Meeting -- The Design of VLAM
Compyle : a tower of languages from Python to C++ using Scheme
When: *Thursday* March 12th 7pm
Where: Room 3195, André-Aisenstadt Building, Université de Montréal,
2920 chemin de la Tour
(you can find a plan of the UdeM campus here:
http://www.stcum.qc.ca/metro/images/c56.pdf)
Marc-Antoine Desroches will give a presentation about the design
choices made while building VLAM Compyle, a just-in-time compiler for
Python. Benefits and challenges associated with a language-based
design will be discussed.

See you there,

We are currently finishing the development of a game called "QuantZ"
that has been mostly written in Scheme using Gambit-C.
A video of the game can be seen at www.gamerizon.com. The current
version of the game runs on Windows and Mac OS.
In the short term, we are looking for 2 developers: a game programmer
with good optimization skills and a Scheme programmer with good
understanding of compiling techniques to work on the iPhone version
and smaller versions of the game in Flash, Java and BREW. For these
versions, the objective would be to reuse/adapt parts of the current
code base, in order to gradually implement a system on which we could
develop games on many platforms at once using the same code base.

Hopefully, people from the Python community will join us, which should
make for fun and interesting discussions at the pub :)
Everybody is welcome, admission is free, pants are mandatory.
