The purpose of the workshop is to report experience with the Scheme family of programming languages, to foster collaboration among the members of the community, and to present research related to Scheme and functional programming.
T-Shirt
To remind you of your heady time at the Scheme Workshop 2009, a t-shirt is now available from cafepress.com.
It appears to me (having now purchased one of them) that I (John Clements) don't actually earn any money from the sale of these t-shirts. Ah well.
