The Principles of Programming Languages conference, POPL 09, and its surrounding workshops is kicking off this week in Savannah, Georgia. Galwegians will be attending most of the conferences: you might be able to find Levent at VMCAI or the Twelf Tutorial, or Iavor at TLDI or POPL, and Jeff Lewis (now at Signali) will be giving a keynote at PADL. Step up and say "hello!".
