<dt>18 Dec 2002<dd> [http://web.comlab.ox.ac.uk/oucl/research/areas/ap/fop/ <b>The Fun of Programming</b>]<br>
A symposium in honour of Professor Richard Bird's 60th birthday<br>
Examination Schools, Oxford, 24th and 25th March, 2003 

<dt>18 Dec 2002<dd> [http://www.palgrave.com/catalogue/catalogue.asp?Title_Id=0333992857 The Fun of Programming] edited by Jeremy Gibbons and Oege de Moor.<br>
The symposium will coincide with the publication by Palgrave
of this eponymous book. It is intended as much as a
textbook for an advanced course in functional programming as
it is a festschrift; its twelve chapters cover applications
(pretty printing, musical composition, hardware description,
graphical design) and techniques (the design of efficient
data structures, interpreters for little languages, program
testing and optimization) in functional programming.

<dt>12 Apr 2002<dd>[http://dalila.sip.ucm.es/ifl02/ IFL 2002] will take place 16 - 18 September 2002 in Madrid.
<dt>18 Mar 2002<dd>A one day workshop on [http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/people/staff/sjt/fdpe02/description.html Functional and Declarative Programming in Education (FDPE02)] will take place on 7 October as part of PLI 2002.

<dt>15 Feb 2002<dd>There will be an [http://www.functional-programming.org/afp/afp4 Advanced FP Summer School] in Oxford this August.

<dt>02 Feb 2002<dd>All haskell services have been moved to a new server. The old haskell was getting short
on disk space and needed an upgrade. If you experience any difficulties send mail to [mailto:mark.wogahn@yale.edu Mark] or [mailto:requests@cs.yale.edu Work Station Support].

<dt>14 Jan 2002<dd>The [http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/hw2002/ 2002 Haskell Workshop] will probably take place in Pittsburgh, PA, USA, on the 3rd, 7th, or 8th October 2002, affiliated with PLI 2002.

<dt>14 Jan 2002<dd>Release Candidate 1 of the
[http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/ffi/ Foreign Function Interface (FFI) Addendum] to Haskell 98 is announced. It is the
outcome of a rather long development effort (including of
course all the work on GreenCard, H/Direct, etc) by a
considerable number of people and much technical discussion
on [http://haskell.org/pipermail/ffi/ ffi@haskell.org]. Comments are solicited by Manuel Chakravarty.
