The European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming starts tomorrow, and Grace people will be there.

On Wednesday, the first day of the full conference, we’ll present the technical paper Graceful Dialects by Michael Homer et al describes how Grace supports dialects using lexical scope, pluggable checkers, and Grace’s flexible syntax, but without requiring macros or depending on types.

At workshops held earlier in the week, Tim Jones will talk about TinygraceA Rational Reconstruction of the Escrow Example — rewriting everything in Grace always being perfectly rational — both at the Formal Techniques for Java-like Languages workshop on Monday,

And at IWACO on Tuesday, James will present On Owners as Accessors with some examples, at least, tending towards Grace.
