OK, let's call the meeting for
 Saturday January 3rd 2009 around 4:30pm
 somewhere to be announced at Universite de Montreal,
 where I will deliver my spiel about
 "Creationist programming vs Evolutionary programming"
 before we go have dinner and drinks somewhere.

Marc, can you announce the precise time & location?

Merry Christmas!

> I could discuss one of these topics, at your convenience:

> * From Software Creationism to Software Evolution:
>  a comic philosophical perspective on programming.
>
> * First-class PCLSRing:
>  a basic concept for extensible concurrent systems
>  with implications for language and compiler designers.
>
> * XCVB, or improving modularity for Common Lisp:
>  My current software project (working prototype recently released),
>  and a few lessons for language designers.

>> I should add, for the benefit of the MSLUG members, that François-René

>> shares similar design goals with Gambit.  I'm looking forward to meeting
>> him.
> With the important difference that Gambit is real running software,
> whereas TUNES is vaporware so far.
