Hello Yuriy and dear Smalltalkers. What do we do for the GSOC. Since last year ESUG was not accepted we are wondering if this is worth to do an ESUG submission. Now the pharo board discussed and would like to apply because we feel that this is important to have a smalltalk presence at GSOC. So let us know what you think but fast.

Status of Helvetia and Language Boxes (by Renggli) on Pharo 3/4

by Graham McLeod

Hi All I have recently revisited the work of Lucas Renggli on hosting embedded DSLs in Pharo with Petit Parser, Helvetia and Language Boxes. I know Petit Parser is in Pharo 3, and presumably 4, but does anyone know the status / availability of Helvetia and Language Boxes with the new releases? Presumably updates would have been necessary because of new compiler, handling of source and AST etc? Information appreciated. Thanks and Regards Graham

Workshops Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) /************************************************************************************/ The ACM SIGPLAN conference on Systems, Programming, Languages and Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH) embraces all aspects of software construction and delivery to make it the premier conference at the intersection of programming, languages, and software engineering. SPLASH is now accepting submissions. We invite high quality submissions describing original and unpublished work. ** OOPSLA Research Papers ** Papers that address any aspect of software development are welcome, including requirements, modeling, prototyping, design, implementation, generation, analysis, verification, testing, evaluation, maintenance, reuse, replacement, and retirement of software systems. Papers may address these topics in a variety of ways, including new tools (such as languages, program analyses, and runtime systems), new techniques (such as methodologies, design processes, code organization approaches, and management techniques), and new evaluations (such as formalisms and proofs, corpora analyses, user studies, and surveys). Submissions Due: 25 March, 2015 http://2015.splashcon.org/track/oopsla2015 ** Onward! Research Papers ** Onward! is a premier multidisciplinary conference focused on everything to do with programming and software: including processes, methods, languages, communities, and applications. Onward! is more radical, more visionary, and more open than other conferences to ideas that are well-argued but not yet proven. We welcome different ways of thinking about, approaching, and reporting on programming language and software engineering research.

It can describe a personal journey, perhaps that by which the author reached an understanding of such a topic. The subject area should be interpreted broadly and can include the relationship of software to human endeavors, or its philosophical, sociological, psychological, historical, or anthropological underpinnings. Submissions Due: 2 April, 2015 http://2015.splashcon.org/track/onward2015-essays ** Workshops ** The SPLASH Workshops track will host a variety of high-quality workshops, allowing their participants to meet and discuss research questions with peers, to mature new and exciting ideas, and to build up communities and start new collaborations. SPLASH workshops complement the main tracks of the conference and provide meetings in a smaller and more specialized setting. Workshops cultivate new ideas and concepts for the future, optionally recorded in formal proceedings. Early Phase Submissions Due: 25 March, 2015 Late Phase Submissions Due: 30 June, 2015 http://2015.splashcon.org/track/splash2015-workshops ** Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) ** DLS is the premier forum for researchers and practitioners to share knowledge and research on dynamic languages, their implementation, and applications. The influence of dynamic languages — from Lisp to Smalltalk to Python to Javascript — on real-world practice, and research, continues to grow. We invite high quality papers reporting original research, innovative contributions, or experience related to dynamic languages, their implementation, and applications.
