I'll be there for the Haskell tutorial (and Damian Conway's Vim tutorial). I've been to OSCON one other time (2005) and that was to present a tutorial on XSLT. I won't be staying for the conference though.

Portland is nice. I live in Seattle, and we make it down there every so often.

XSLT is what I do at my dayjob, too. I just presented a quick tutorial (one hour) on how we like our XSLT to be done and how to use XPath in the company. None of the developers who needed to be there showed up. Next week I do one to show how I use XSLT to route messages around the company. The support guys asked for that, since it will help them debug message flows. Your "XSLT 1.0 Pocket Reference" is very helpful, but I wish people would buy their own and stop borrowing mine all the time. :-D Today I get to see if we can use Java classes created by a mapping tool, because their XSLT would not run on our infrastructure (IBM's WebSphere Message Broker). The XSLT compiled to bad Java classes, but since the XSLT was created from Java classes, maybe the original Java classes might work??? I've been considering both those tutorials as well as Higher-order Perl and Intro to Rails, but I'll probably end up in whatever isn't full when I get to registering. At least my flight and hotel are booked. Now my employers just have not to cancel my vacation. My next mission, besides convincing people at work that I know Perl and Java (most of what I was doing before they hired me), is to get them to switch to Haskell.

Are a lot of Haskellers going to be at OSCON, or just Simon Peyton Jones and myself?

I've never been to Portland, Oregon, before.
