Dear friends, It is my pleasure to announce the formation of fp-southwales, a user group for anybody interested in functional programming in the area of south Wales, UK. We're based out of Swansea University's Computer Science department, where there are a few of us using Haskell for our research, but we welcome anyone who wants to join in, from academia or industry, from Swansea, or Cardiff, or indeed anywhere in south Wales. As the name of the group also suggests, we're interested in all aspects of functional programming, not just Haskell, although we expect that to be a central topic, for now at least. We exist online as a google group: http://groups.google.com/group/fp-southwales The first point of business is: hello, what shall we do, and when shall we do it? :-) http://groups.google.com/group/fp-southwales/browse_thread/thread/ddb2d352a1... All welcome! -Andy
