This could be an opportunity to advertise our ideas.
What problems are we trying to solve? 
Can we state it in a few intelligible sentences,
then explain it in a short speech?

I am organizing two events which could be of interest to folks on this list.
The first is a workshop called Biological Framings of Problems in Computing,
to be held April 17-19 at the Santa Fe Institute. The idea is to come up
with a set of "Hilbert's Problems" whose solutions would push forward the
idea of using more biological metaphors in the foundations of computing. The
URL is

The second is a conference within a conference at OOPSLA 2002, called
Onward!: Seeking New Paradigms and New Thinking. There is a separate program
committee for it and we expect to have our own keynote etc. The idea is to
try to get some larger vision type papers, but backed up with some initial
work if possible. The URL is

Bon Dieu ! que de peine à prouver, en économie politique, que deux et deux
font quatre; et, si vous y parvenez, on s'écrit: « c'est si clair, que c'en
est ennuyeux. » - Puis on vote comme si vous n'aviez rien prouvé du tout.
