For our next meeting of "lispvan", Avi Bryant, the author of the Seaside continuation-based web application framework (which is written in Smalltalk), will be giving us a presentation describing his web application framework. Since Drew Crampsie gave the presentation last month covering his lisp-on-lines package (which is built on top of Marco Baringer's UCW, a CL continuation-based web application framework), this meeting will give us the opportunity to compare/contrast the approaches taken in each of the frameworks. If you're interested in alternative approaches to web application development, it should be an interesting meeting! Here's the "official" meeting notice:

Presenter: Avi Bryant
Date: Thursday, August 25, 2005
