The usual release artifacts are available from https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.6.1-beta1 This beta fixes most of the bugs reported in the first two alphas and brings all of the core libraries up to their final release versions. The 8.6 release fixes over 300 bugs from the 8.4 series and introduces a number of exciting features. These most notably include: * Significantly better handling of macOS linker command size limits, avoiding linker errors while linking large projects * A new deriving mechanism, `deriving via`, providing a convenient way for users to extend Haskell's typeclass deriving mechanism * Quantified constraints, allowing forall quantification in contexts * An early version of the GHCi `:doc` command * The `ghc-heap-view` package, allowing introspection into the structure of GHC's heap * Valid hole fit hints, helping the user to find terms to fill typed holes in their programs * The BlockArguments extension, allowing the `$` operator to be omitted in some unambiguous contexts * The next phase of the MonadFail proposal, enabling -XMonadFailDesugaring by default A full list of the changes in this release can be found in the release notes: https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.6.1-beta1/docs/html/users_guide/8.6.1-notes.html This will very likely be the last release before the final 8.6.1 so do give it a thorough testing and, as always, report any issues you encounter.

Please forward these to anyone you think may be interested. Apologies for any duplicates you may receive. best regards, Jurriaan Hage Publicity Chair of IFL --- CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: ================================================================================ IFL 2018 30th Symposium on Implementation and Application of Functional Languages University of Massachusetts Lowell, MA, USA September 5th-7th, 2018 http://iflconference.org September 5th: Haskell Mini-Course by Galois, Inc, see details below. ================================================================================ ### Scope The goal of the IFL symposia is to bring together researchers actively engaged in the implementation and application of functional and function-based programming languages. IFL 2018 will be a venue for researchers to present and discuss new ideas and concepts, work in progress, and publication-ripe results related to the implementation and application of functional languages and function-based programming. ### Keynote Speakers * Adam Chlipala, Massachusetts Institute of Technology CSAIL * Arjun Guha, University of Massachusetts Amherst ### Haskell Mini-Course (September 5th, 2018) Mini-course on Haskell by Galois, Inc, presented by David Thrane Christiansen and Jose Manuel Calderon Trilla. Register: Attendance at the course is free, but you must RSVP. (Link to RSVP form can be found at http://iflconference.org) Course Description: Recent versions of the GHC compiler for Haskell feature support for a number of advanced type system features, including pattern-matching functions in the type system (type families), indexed families (generalized algebraic datatypes, or GADTs), type-level data structures (data kinds), and general compile-time metaprogramming (Template Haskell). At Galois, we use these features in a number of our projects, which allows us to build deep embeddings of programming languages and have GHC enforce the target language's type system for us. This style of programming ensures that we only produce well-typed terms, including that we do not forget any of the run-time checks that are necessary to preserve our invariants when accepting input from untyped sources such as files. In the course of developing these projects, some common problems and programming patterns emerged. We developed the `parameterized-utils` library to codify solutions to these problems, and provide necessary generalizations of interfaces from the standard library (Eq, Applicative, Traversable, etc.) We will expect that participants in the course have used Haskell before, but we will not expect everyone to be experts. We will introduce GADTs, type families, and data kinds, and then show how to use them together with the tools from parameterized-utils with an implementation of the simply-typed lambda calculus, including basic AST definitions, evaluation, and parsing. ### Peter Landin Prize The Peter Landin Prize is awarded to the best paper presented at the symposium every year. The honored article is selected by the program committee based on the submissions received for the formal review process. The prize carries a cash award equivalent to 150 Euros. ### Organization and Program committee Chairs: Jay McCarthy & Matteo Cimini, University of Massachusetts Lowell, USA Program Committee: * Arthur Chargueraud, Inria, FR * Ben Delaware, Purdue University, USA * Christos Dimoulas, Northwestern University, USA * David Darais, University of Vermont, USA * Dominic Orchard, University of Kent, UK * Ekaterina Komendantskaya, Heriot-Watt University, UK * Garrett Morris, University of Kansas, USA * Heather Miller, EPFL & Northeastern University, CH & USA * Jeremy Yallop, University of Cambridge, UK * Keiko Nakata, SAP Innovation Center Potsdam, DE * Laura Castro, University of A Coruna, ESP * Magnus Myreen, Chalmers University of Technology, SWE * Natalia Chechina, Bournemouth University, UK * Peter Achten, Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen, NL * Peter-Michael Osera, Grinnell College, USA * Richard Eisenberg, Bryn Mawr College, USA * Trevor McDonell, University of New South Wales, AUS * Yukiyoshi Kameyama, University of Tsukuba, JAP ### Venue The 30th IFL is organized by the University of Massachusetts Lowell.

In order to reason about the semantics of a programming language with computational effects, it is necessary to separate the effects out from the rest of the language. To this end, algebraic effects permit a wide class of computational effects to be specified in a pure setting using only operations that give rise to them and equations that the operations satisfy. The algebraic treatment of operations naturally leads to a novel treatment of handlers for all computational effects, not just for exceptions. Algebraic effect handlers have been steadily gaining attention as a programming language feature since they generalise many control-flow abstractions such as exception handling, iterators, async/await, or backtracking, while ensuring that the composition of various features remains well-behaved. Indeed, there are implementations of algebraic effects and effect handlers as libraries in C, Clojure, F#, Haskell, OCaml, Scala, JavaScript, as well as full-fledged languages such as Eff, Frank, Links, Koka, and Multicore OCaml. Algebraic effect handlers have also influenced the design of software tools in industry including Facebook's React UI library and Uber's Pyro probabilistic programming language. To recognise and encourage the publication of mature research contributions in this area, a special issue of the Journal of Functional Programming (JFP) will be devoted to the same theme. ## Topics Full-length, archival-quality submissions are solicited on theoretical and practical aspects of algebraic effects and handlers. Examples include, but are not limited to: * Reasoning about algebraic effects and handlers (denotational semantics, dependent types, logical relations, language support for equational reasoning) * Effect typing (subtyping, row-polymorphism, generativity, encapsulation) * Implementation of effect handlers (dynamic effects, selective CPS translations, delimited continuations) * Applications of algebraic effect handlers (probabilistic programming, event correlation, meta-programming, asynchronous I/O, debugging) Reports on applications of these techniques to real-world problems are especially encouraged, as are submissions that relate ideas and concepts from several of these topics, or bridge the gap between theory and practice. Papers will be reviewed as regular JFP submissions, and acceptance in the special issue will be based on both JFP's quality standards and relevance to the theme. The special issue also welcomes high-quality survey and position papers that would benefit a wide audience. Authors are encouraged to indicate interest in submitting by December 14, 2018, to aid in identifying suitable reviewers. The submission deadline is January 18, 2019. The expected submission length is 25-35 pages, excluding bibliography and appendices. Shorter submissions are encouraged; prospective authors of longer submissions should discuss their plans with the special issue editors in advance. Submissions that are based on previously-published conference or workshop papers must clearly describe the relationship with the initial publication, and must differ sufficiently that the author can assign copyright to Cambridge University Press. Prospective authors are welcome to discuss such submissions with the editors to ensure compliance with this policy. ## Submissions Submissions should be sent through the JFP Manuscript Central system at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cup/jfp_submit. Choose “Effects and Handlers” as the paper type, so that it gets assigned to the special issue. For other submission details, please consult an issue of the Journal of Functional Programming or see the Journal's web page at http://journals.cambridge.org/jid_JFP. ## Tentative Schedule * 14 December 2018: Expression of interest * 18 January 2019: Submission deadline * 22 April 2019: First round of reviews * 23 August 2019: Revision deadline * 15 November 2019: Second round of reviews * 13 December 2019: Final accepted versions due ## Guest Editors * Andrej Bauer, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, University of Ljubljana * KC Sivaramakrishnan, Department of Computer Science and Technology, University of Cambridge ## Editors in Chief * Jeremy Gibbons, Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford * Matthias Felleisen, College of Computer and Information Science, Northeastern University -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Leuven is the capital of the province of Flemish Brabant in Belgium. It is located about 25 kilometres (16 miles) east of Brussels. It is the 10th largest municipality in Belgium and the fourth in Flanders. Leuven is home to the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the largest and oldest university of the Low Countries and the oldest Catholic university still in existence. The related university hospital of UZ Leuven, is one of the largest hospitals of Europe. The city is also known for being the headquarters of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewer and one of the five largest consumer-goods companies in the world. Leuven's Town Hall is one of the best-known Gothic town halls worldwide and Leuven's pride and joy. It took three architects and thirty years to build it. Leuven's 'Hall of Fame' features 236 statues, which were only added to the façade after 1850. There are 220 men and 16 women in total. On the bottom floor are famous Leuven scientists, artists and historical figures, dressed in Burgundian garb. The first floor is reserved for the patron saints of the various parishes of Leuven. Above them the façade is adorned by the counts and dukes of Brabant while the towers primarily feature biblical figures.
