OOPSLA 2006
Last updated at 10:44 am UTC on 27 October 2006
Update: Two movies available from the BOF (will be available for at least a few months - will remove this link if I take them down).

As usual Squeakers will show up in the wild at OOPSLA. The Squeak Bird of a feather session is usually held during an evening:

"I think we have a tradition of doing it just after supper (ie 7:30-ish) the night before the "social event", unless it conflicts with something else we like." (quote from Dan).

The BOF is now scheduled. It will be on Tuesday, October 24th, from 1730 - 2200 (5:30PM - 10:00pm) in room E141 of the convention center. We'll take a break at 1900 to let folks grab dessert from the reception, then resume at about 1945.

Craig Latta has volunteered to be the BOF host, and is bringing a projector. Thanks, Craig!

The BOF has the last few years consisted of a series of demos/presentations of "all things Squeak". If you are attending OOPSLA and would like to show something in an informal atmosphere, write down an entry below. Most years we have not been short on demos so be prepared to keep it "tight" like in 15-30 minutes max.


In addition to the BOF, there will be the usual table(s) of CampSmalltalk/Squeakers set up during the entire week of the conference, in a place accessible to everyone. Typically this is either near the exhibits, or just outside of the conference if they decide to only let paying attendees into the exhibit area. This year, we've settled at tables near the "E" meeting rooms.
