EuroGP 2006

Hi folks,

I will attend EuroGP 2006, April 10-12, Budapest,
http://evonet.lri.fr/eurogp2006/ 

If anyone of the European Lisp Community shows up there too (presumably
because of the interest in the subject), I would be _very_ interested in
having a chat.

Clemens

News about the European Common Lisp Meeting

Hi,

We now have 104 registrations from 20 countries for the European
Common Lisp Meeting in Hamburg.  This means that there are only
21 seats left.  If you want to be sure of a place, don't wait with
registering until April 19 but register NOW at:

  http://weitz.de/eclm2006/

About the dinner on Saturday evening: thanks to Edi's negotiation
skills the original maximum of 80 people has now turned into a
maximum of 90 people.  But with 83 seats already taken you'd better
register YESTERDAY if you're interested in more than a lonely Big
Mac on Saturday evening.

Looking forward to seeing 124 Lispers in one room,

Arthur Lemmens

Job Opening in Munich for Lisp Programmer

Cadence Design Systems GmbH in Munich, Germany ( www.cadence.com and
www.cadence.com/vcad) has a job opening in the VCAD organization for
an experienced software developer.  It would be great to fill
the position with someone who has good Lisp experience.

Virtual CAD (VCAD) is a group within Cadence providing EDA (Electronic
Design Automation) related services.  The job is with the
software development group within VCAD.  Cadence's software products
are scripted with the SKILL language, a Lisp language with two
dialects: one Franz Lisp-like dialect, and one Scheme-like dialect.
The VCAD software group also uses Common Lisp where appropriate.

The position would be working in a small software group within an
IC design services group.  Tasks are usually related to IC design
automation but not exclusively.  Other current projects include release
management,  resource scheduling/tracking, Object-system implementation,
regression/system/unit testing flow development.

We are looking for someone who either has experience programming in a
Lisp language, or is interested in learning Lisp in a production
environment, and is comfortable in several mutually unrelated
programming languages (eg, C, Smalltalk, and PostScript; or Java,
Prolog, and SPARC assembly language).  Experience in Perl, Python,
C++, TCL, Java and Ample are useful but to a lesser extent.
Experience with UNIX applications such as mySQL and Postgres would
also be good.  The platform is 99% UNIX based, including mostly Linux
and Solaris.  Other things that would be nice, but are not required:
some theoretical familiarity with relational databases (eg, you took a
database class or read the textbook from one); Windows programming
experience; Oracle experience.
