I'm glad to announce our first meeting in the new year, which will be held, as usual, on the second Wednesday of the month, January 12, at 7pm.
This time we have a talk by Eugene Kirpichov from St.Petersburg, Russia, who is visiting the Bay Area. Eugene is a very active member of Russian functional programming community, you also could have come across his posts in Haskell-Cafe mailing list.
A tentative plan is to have Eugene talk about two excellent tools that he wrote in Haskell, Timeplot and Splot, and his experiences using them in some real projects. (Spoiler: you can see his presentation about these tools here, but I strongly urge you to come to the meeting and hear him talk about the tools). There are other interesting topics that Eugene can talk about, so if time permits we may also have discussions on the topics of his choosing (possible topics: making use of functional programming experience in imperative languages, advanced funtional data-structures).
The meeting place is our usual place in SOMA, kindly provided by Engine Yard (Larry, please confirm):
500 Third Street, Suite 510
San Francisco, CA 94107
Contact phone (mine): 650-762-6644.
Host's phone (Larry's): 407-718-7665.
Please arrive a little bit earlier, so that we could start at 7pm sharp.
Some people will be going from the South Bay (and probably East Bay) to the meeting and back, so there's a possibility of carpooling. Also, it's very easy to get to Engine Yard from the Caltrain station. Please send me a message if you need help figuring out transportation. If you can take some people from East/South Bay on your car to the meeting and back, please send a message to the baha...@googlegroups.com mailing list.Please retweet/post to reddit/forward this email to those who may be interested in attending. If you plan to attend, and you're not yet subscribed, please subscribe to BAHaskell Google Group to follow all the discussions related to this meeting (if you have troubles with the captcha while joining, please send me a direct email).
I'll be driving from Palo alto

ACCU's usually at Symantec in Mtn View, right? What were you going to
present, Vlad? Is this something we haven't seen yet at a BACAT?

Ivan - thanks for announcing! I was going to announce myself, but
suddenly I left for vacation :)
Perhaps I'll also say something about "ire" http://github.com/jkff/ire
, a pet project of mine - an incremental regular expression engine
based on Dan Piponi's ideas from
http://blog.sigfpe.com/2009/01/fast-incremental-regular-expression.html
. Although it's not in Haskell (it's in Java), I still think that
discussing this stuff with bahaskell will be very useful for me and, I
hope, also interesting for bahaskell :)
