Another quick post, lest you think all I do is run. I am also a graduate student, and recently I had a paper accepted into MSPC 2008. The idea was a little project we worked on over the summer, and we didn’t know how to proceed with it. My friend suggested this workshop, which turned out to be perfect. We plan to submit a full paper on the topic for OOPSLA 2009; we’ll see how that turns out. The reviews were all very positive, and I hope we get some good discussion at MSPC that we can roll into the full paper.
I would post a link to the paper, but (a) the final version won’t be ready until the end of the month, and (b) then you anonymous Internet people would know who I was! If you do know who I am, then search for my name on Google, click on my homepage at my university, and it’ll be there under my publications at the end of the month.
The other thing about this is that I get to go to Seattle in March! I’m excited because I’ve never been to the Northwest, and I hear they have excellent beer there.
