Who’s Going To The Erlang Workshop?

Posted by Yariv on August 25, 2006

Hi,

I’m curious as to who’s planning on going to the Fifth ACM SIGPLAN Erlang Workshop in Portlang on the 16th (the link is on the front page of http://erlang.org).

I haven’t made up my mind yet if I should go. It would be fun to meet some Erlangers face to face but I have no idea how popular this workshop is.

I’d appreciate it if somebody could clue me in.

Thanks in advance!

    Don’t know how many that will show up this year, but my guess is around 40-50 people. (2005 there was 35 participants and 2004 there was 24)…

    However, looking at the workshop program, I can see that a few people that I’ve meet is giving a talk. For instance some former students at my university will talk about Erlang/OTP experiences in web based service applications :)

    And by the way, I will not attend …

    I’m going, mainly to listen and learn since I’m still very much an Erlang/concurrency/parallel noob. Besides learning more about Erlang, I’m also hoping for project ideas I can hack at once I finish working through the getting started guide and documenation.

    There’s at least 4 of us from the Seattle area that are going to be driving down for the workshop–haven’t been there before, but really excited!
