A Mini-PLoP at OOPSLA ‘07
On Sunday, October 21, a full-day bootcamp will be
offered by Bob Hanmer and Linda Rising followed by a full day of
writer’s (and writing) workshops on Monday, October 22, led by Bob
Hanmer, Linda Rising, and Joe Yoder.
Bootcamp attendees want to learn more about
patterns and pattern writing. Writing workshop attendees have papers
that are ready for workshop feedback or, in the case of a writing
workshop, have papers that need coaching.
Writers’ workshops will bring together authors of
papers in software development who
wish to have feedback from collaborative peers. Attendees will
participate in a writers' workshop of
their papers as well as writers' workshops for papers of other
attendees in their group. Participants who do not have a paper to
workshop are also invited, but everyone will be expected to read all the
papers in their groups in advance.
We are also inviting papers for “writing”
workshops. The authors of these papers are looking for writing coaching
for ideas that are not fully developed.
