Alternatively Stef, it tells us "nothing good" about mind-share of Smalltalks out there in the real world. The current mindshare of Pharo is on a par with Lasso. The mindshare of all Smalltalks is on a par with Julia or Objective C++ Commercial take-up is highly correlated with mindshare. At some point, we need to address the mindshare issue directly, rather than pretending it is irrelevant. One of the models of tech uptake has a path that runs: contains Development Dismissal Disappearance If we're not even visible enough to have questionnaire's reflect our approach, this is not a good sign. I don't think it necessarily reflects poorly on the questionnaire's authors.

Workshops Doctoral Symposium Posters Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) Software Language Engineering (SLE) Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE) /************************************************************************************/ # SPLASH 2016 The ACM SIGPLAN conference on Systems, Programming, Languages and Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH) embraces all aspects of software construction, to make it the premier conference at the intersection of programming, languages, systems, and software engineering. We invite high quality submissions describing original and unpublished work.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: Wed 23 March, 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org/track/splash-2016-oopsla ## 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. Submissions due: Fri 1 April, 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org/track/onward2016/onward-2016-papers ## Onward! Essays Onward! Essays is looking for clear and compelling pieces of writing about topics important to the software community. An essay can be an exploration of a topic, its impact, or the circumstances of its creation; it can present a personal view of what is, explore a terrain, or lead the reader in an act of discovery; it can be a philosophical digression or a deep analysis. It can describe a personal journey, perhaps 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: Fri 1 April, 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org/track/onward2016/onward2016-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. Late Phase Submissions of Workshop Proposals due: Fri 4 Mar, 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org/track/splash2016-workshops ## Doctoral Symposium The SPLASH Doctoral Symposium provides students with useful guidance for completing their dissertation research and beginning their research careers. The Symposium will provide an interactive forum for doctoral students who have progressed far enough in their research to have a structured proposal, but will not be defending their dissertation in the next 12 months. Submissions due: Thu 30 Jun, 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org/track/splash-2016-ds ## Posters The SPLASH Poster track provides an excellent forum for authors to present their recent or ongoing projects in an interactive setting, and receive feedback from the community. We invite submissions covering any aspect of programming, systems, languages and applications. The goal of the poster session is to encourage and facilitate small groups of individuals interested in a technical area to gather and interact. Poster submissions due: Fri 8 Jul, 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org/track/splash-2016-posters ## 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. Submissions due: Fri 10 June, 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org/track/dls-2016/dls-2016-papers ## Software Language Engineering (SLE) Software Language Engineering (SLE) is the application of systematic, disciplined, and measurable approaches to the development, use, deployment, and maintenance of software languages. The term “software language” is used broadly, and includes: general-purpose programming languages; domain-specific languages (e.g. BPMN, Simulink, Modelica); modeling and metamodeling languages (e.g. SysML and UML); data models and ontologies (e.g. XML-based and OWL-based languages and vocabularies). SLE solicits high-quality contributions in areas ranging from theoretical and conceptual contributions to tools, techniques, and frameworks in the domain of language engineering. Submissions due: Fri 17 June, 2016 (abstracts); Fri 24 June, 2016 (papers) http://2016.splashcon.org/track/sle-2016/sle-2016-papers ## Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE) The International Conference on Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE) is a venue for researchers and practitioners interested in techniques that use program generation, domain-specific languages, and component deployment to increase programmer productivity, improve software quality, and shorten the time-to-market of software products. In addition to exploring cutting-edge techniques of generative software, our goal is to foster further cross-fertilization between the software engineering and the programming languages research communities.

SPLASH'16: 1st Call for Workshop Proposals
by Tijs van der Storm Jan. 2, 2016

Jan. 2, 2016

/************************************************************************************/ ACM Conference on Systems, Programming, Languages, and Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH'16) Amsterdam, The Netherlands 30th of October - 4th of November 2016 http://2016.splashcon.org Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN /************************************************************************************/ CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS Early Deadline: January 15th, 2016 Late Deadline: March 4th, 2016 /************************************************************************************/ # SPLASH'16 Call for Workshop Proposals Following its long-standing tradition, SPLASH 2016 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. # SUBMISSION SUMMARY Early Submissions Due: January 15, 2016 Notification: February 12, 2016 Late Submissions Due: March 4, 2016 Notification: April 1, 2016 Format: ACM SIGPLAN Proceedings format Submit to: https://splash16workshops.hotcrp.com/ Chairs: Jan Rellermeyer and Craig Anslow Contact: workshops(a)splashcon.org ** Please note the earlier submission deadline than in previous years. ** ### TOPICS We encourage proposals for workshops on any topic relevant to SPLASH. If there is a topic relevant to SPLASH that you feel passionate about, and you want to connect with others who have similar interests, you should consider submitting a proposal to organize a workshop! The exact format of the workshop can be defined by the proposal submitters, and we more than welcome new, and unconventional ideas for workshop formats. The following suggestions may serve as a starting point: Mini-conferences provide their participants the possibility to present their work to other domain experts. The smaller and more specialized setting of the workshop allows for more extensive Q&A sessions and facilitates ample discussions, which may continue after the workshop. Typically, presentations of work-in-progress as well as of completed projects are welcome. The workshop may or may not produce formal proceedings. Retreats act as a platform for domain experts to gather with the purpose of tackling the issues of a predetermined research agenda. Retreats are highly interactive and goal-oriented, allowing their participants to address open challenges in their domain, to explore new, uncharted ideas, and to (maybe even) uncover new, promising research domains. Agenda-setting workshops provide a forum for domain experts to determine a research agenda for a sub-field, and may include collaborations on an agenda document that is published after the workshop is over. Other common activities at workshops include poster sessions, hands-on practical work, and focus groups. Proposal submitters should feel free to direct questions about workshop formats to the workshop chairs. Workshops that include presentation of research papers, and that implement a SIGPLAN-approved selection process, may be archived as formal proceedings in the ACM Digital Library; note that this option is available only to submitters to the early phase. # WORKSHOP SELECTION ### Reviewing Phases This year, SPLASH provides two submission phases to accommodate different schedules, a early round in January and a late round of proposals in March. Since space is limited at the venue, the PC will consider prospective attendance as one of the selection criteria. ### Proposal Content SPLASH workshop proposals should not exceed 6 pages, and must include the following information: Title and desired abbreviation: if the workshop is accepted, this will be used for advertising purposes. Theme, goals and format: the main topic and goals of the workshop, the workshop's relevance to the SPLASH community, as well as the workshop's format (e.g., mini-conference, retreat, agenda-setting workshop). Abstract: a 150-word abstract that summarizes the theme and goals of the workshop. If the workshop is accepted, this abstract will be used for advertising purposes. Organizers: workshop organizers are responsible for advertising the workshop (e.g., creating the anchoring website for the workshop and sending CFPs to relevant mailing lists), organizing the reviewing process (e.g., by forming a small program committee), running the workshop, and collating any results of the workshop for dissemination. The proposal should indicate the names, affiliations, and contact details of the workshop organizers as well as a primary organizer and contact person (primary organizer and contact person do not need to be the same). For each organizer, the proposal should describe his/her background (expertise in the area and previous experience in running workshops) and also identify his/her responsibilities for the workshop. Anticipated attendance: the ideal, minimum, and maximum expected number of participants. Please note that there will be an additional charge for workshop registration at SPLASH 2015. The SPLASH organizing committee reserves the right to cancel any workshops that do not meet attendance goals. Advertisement: the planned advertisement for the workshop to ensure sufficient participation. Participant preparation: what preparation is expected from workshop participants, including how attendees gain access to the workshop (e.g., submission of a full paper, an extended abstract, a position paper). Activities and format: the format of the workshop and a timetable. All SPLASH 2015 workshops must be planned for one or two full days of activities. For example, the proposal should describe whether there will be introductory material, paper presentations, panel discussions, debates, hands-on sessions, or focus groups, and how such groups will report back to the other participants. Post-workshop activities: what results are expected, and how these will be disseminated to the wider public after the workshop. Workshops that result in peer-reviewed papers and implement an ACM SIGPLAN-approved selection process can submit formal proceedings to the ACM Digital Library. To get the approval, the workshop has to meet the usual requirements defined for ACM SIGPLAN events (i.e., approval of workshop proposal and workshop program committee by ACM SIGPLAN). The approval process is coordinated by the SPLASH organizers. Special requirements: any special requirements you might have, in terms of room configuration, audio and video equipment, etc. ### Format Submissions should use the SIGPLAN Proceedings Format, 10 point font. Note that by default the SIGPLAN Proceedings Format produces papers in 9 point font. If you are formatting your paper using LaTeX, you will need to set the 10pt option in the \documentclass command. If you are formatting your paper using Word, you may wish to use the provided Word template that supports this font size. Please include page numbers in your submission. ### Publication If your workshop chooses to have published proceedings, be aware that accepted papers will be available in the ACM Digital Library as early as September 23, 2016. The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. It is therefore vital that this information will be communicated to participants in your workshop. ### Evaluation criteria Workshop proposals will be selected based on the quality of the proposal and according to the space available at SPLASH. The following questions may be helpful in devising a high-quality proposal: Are there at least two organizers and do they represent a reasonably varied cross-section of the community close to the topic? Does the abstract present a compelling case for the importance of the topic area? Are the goals of the workshop expressed clearly? Is the topic likely to be attractive to SPLASH attendees? Does the chosen format encourage a high level of interaction between the participants? Is a workshop the right forum to address the theme and goals or does the proposal fit better into another type of SPLASH event? Workshop chairs For additional information, clarification, or answers to questions please contact workshops(a)splashcon.org -- Researcher Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) Master of Software Engineering Universiteit van Amsterdam (UvA) Dr. Tijs van der Storm @ Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) Office: L225 | Phone: +31 (0)20 5924164 | Address: Science Park 123 P.O.

Does anyone remember details of a "pro-Smalltalk" merger circa 2013?
by Richard Sargent Dec. 22, 2015

Dec. 22, 2015

I heard an anecdote of a recent merger between two companies in which one had over 200 people supporting a Java application and the other had ~25 people supporting a Smalltalk application. The surprising result was that the Smalltalk application was selected for the merged company rather than the Java one. I would like to know which companies were involved, when this occurred, and what the precise details were. Thank you! -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Does-anyone-remember-details-of-a-pro-Smalltalk-merge… Sent from the ESUG mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
