A thought to dicscuss for next year's Haskell workshop. This is the second year running that there have been no submissions accepted in the `application letters' category for the Haskell workshop. It seems that this comes from the fact that these are not getting the same grades as submissions focussed on more theoretical aspects of Haskell and functional programming. That's a shame, since it means that information of value to many users of the language are not going into the public record. A suggestion: why not have a poster session at the next workshop? This is used at many conferences for shorter papers, work in progress, implementation aspects and the like. The advantage of this over ten minute, ad hoc, talks is that the posters (or poster abstracts) form part of the formal proceedings and are thus available to the community for reference. This is, of course, particularly valuable in the case of applications, when it's useful to find out what one can re-use, as well as seeing what might be problematic about existing tools and libraries. How would a poster session work? People submit abstracts, and then bring posters (plus laptops for demos etc. if they wish) to the meeting. These are displayed over tea/coffee breaks, or indeed a separate time could be devoted to them. I'd be interested to hear what others think; maybe there's a better way of getting the application-oriented material into the workshop? Simon Thompson
