Hope to see you all there!

sanjiv sahayamI thought Matt did a good presentation. Some of the presentation was over my head but I did come away with a new appreciation for folds(l,r) and it got me thinking about the performance of a solution. I specially enjoyed the introduction of the "fingertree" structure! :)

JensNice to hear Matthew's experiences of the conferences in Edinburgh and a good explanation of folding lists, trees and intrigued by finger-trees.

mike buhotOthers and I were between 5-15 minutes late arriving. Please consider just chatting for the first 15 minutes to allow for stragglers! Give newcomers a chance to introduce themselves and meet everyone. The M'n'M's were great! The tutorial material was a real eye opener that creating immutable lazy data structures with performance characteristic
s near their mutable equivalents is a real challenge.
