The vacation time of most people is over, so it is time to meet and discuss a little. A good opportunity to do this will be given on September 1st in Roxie, Hamburg during the Eclipse Stammtisch. The event name translates into regular’s table and indicates a regularity of the happening. Even if the upcoming event is only the second in series I expect to meet many people after the great feedback after the last one.

See you next Monday.

On Friday, I took part on the leave-taking of Prof. de Roever in Christian-Albrechts-Universität, in Kiel, Germany. Several prominent people from computer science research community spoke very kind words about de Roever, especially Amir Pnueli, who presented himself as a colleage and a competitor. Leslie Lamport also has been there, but I missed his talk that took place on Thursday. Further pictures are in my Flickr gallery…
