Lisp assembly at 38c3

[Fabio Natali <me@fabionatali.com>]

Dear All,

tl;dr: This is to let you know that I've registered a Lisp assembly at
38c3. I'm currently reaching out to various Lisp-related communities to
see if anyone is also attending 38c3 and might be interested in joining
the assembly.

More context:

38c3 is the 38th edition of the Chaos Communication Congress or CCC[0],
the annual hacker conference happening in Hamburg, Germany from 27th to
30th December. Roughly speaking, a Congress assembly is a space that's
made available for a self-organised group, to collaborate, organise
workshops, talks, etc. around a specific project or area of interest.

The 38c3 Lisp assembly[1] is meant as a meeting point for Lisp
aficionados of all levels as well as for the passer-by who's curious and
wants to know more. I hope this will attract friends from a variety of
Lisp dialects (e.g. Chicken, Clojure, Common Lisp, Emacs Lisp, Fennel,
Guile, Racket) and Lisp-based projects (e.g. Emacs and Guix).

I'd like to prepare a small number of activities, such as:

- micro talks,
- pair-programming sessions,
- bug-reporting/bug-fixing/patch-review sessions.

No code-of-conduct has been chosen yet but there'll be one (which can be
chosen collaboratively if you like, possibly taken from or inspired by
one particular Lisp project's CoC).

As I'm only familiar with a small fraction of Lisp languages and
projects, I'd love to hear from any fellow Lisp-minded hacker who's also
planning to be at 38c3, to join forces and plan things together.

If you're interested or have any question, you can:

- write to ~fabionatali/lisp-at-38c3@lists.sr.ht (public list[2]), or
- reply to this email (make sure to CC me please), or
- reach out on the Fediverse at @fnat@social.coop, or
- reach out on IRC at fnat at libera.chat.

Have a lovely day, cheers,

Fabio.


PS: I'm planning to send this out to the following Lisp mailing lists:

- chicken-hackers@nongnu.org
- clojure@googlegroups.com
- ~technomancy/fennel@lists.sr.ht
- guile-devel@gnu.org
- dev@racket-lang.org
- emacs-devel@gnu.org
- guix-devel@gnu.org

Apologies if you end up receiving multiple copies through different
channels. Let me know if there's any other relevant community that I
should reach out to.
