News: Meeting no. 3 and Mailing List

July 14, 2007 on 9:31 pm | By Neil | In , |

Hello HUGgers! It’s time for another meeting, and this time we’re back at City University on Wednesday 25th July from 6:30PM. See the Venue page for more details of how to get there. This time we are in room A247.

This time, Lennart Augustsson has offered to give a short talk entitled “Djinn, generating code with magic?”. Sounds intriguing… however, we need more! I had offered to give a short talk on HXT, the Haskell XML Toolkit, but to my very great regret I will not be able to make it to the next meeting myself, as I will be in Japan. So we need more volunteers! Please send in your suggestions… remember, we are a small, friendly community, and a talk at any level would be very welcome.

In other news, Ganesh Sittampalam (Heffalump on IRC) has very helpfully set up two mailing lists. The first one is for announcements: this will be a low volume list, purely for announcing forthcoming meetings and so on. The second one is for discussions relating to the London HUG, for example which pub we should go to. Please try to keep general Haskell discussion off the London HUG list… they should happen in Haskell Cafe where other Haskellers outside London can benefit from them.

I will send a single personal email to everybody who previously registered for the HUG to invite you join the mailing lists. I apologize for the spam, but it’s the last one I will send.

  1. Is it opened for non-londoner that happen to be in London in that date? And, at what time is it?
    Thank you.

  2. Pupeno,

    Of course, anybody who can make it there is welcome.

    Sorry, I forgot to specify the time. The meeting starts at 6:30PM… I have edited the post to include this. Thanks.

  4. Non-Londoner, here. Does your non-existence at this talk mean no video? The SPJ GHC NDP VLC you uploaded was quite good (thanks for that), and the augustss’s talk sounds interesting…

    Yes that’s right, I’m afraid there’s no video. I would also like to have caught Lennart’s talk.

    However I am planning to video all future HUG talks, subject to the consent of the speakers.

    Regards,
    Neil
