Tcl/Tk 2005 First Call for papers.
The 12th Annual Tcl/Tk conference (Tcl2005), sponsored by Noumena Corporation, and Mentor Graphics, with help from ActiveState, and ExpoTech.
Come to the 12th Tcl/Tk Conference to:
The conference program will include paper presentations, tutorials, Birds of a Feather (BOF) sessions and invited key-note talks. This call invites you to submit extended abstracts to be considered for the conference program. The conference schedule will consist of 2 days of tutorials (Monday - Tuesday) and 3 days for the main conference (Wednesday - Friday).
Keynote Speaker
Our keynote speaker will be Steve Collins, an attitude control system engineer at JPL (that means they let him steer spacecraft). Most recently, Steve was part of the Deep Impact team that blew a hole in the comet Tempel 1 (how many people do you know that have trashed a comet?)

For those who are not presenting a paper at the conference, but would like to present their work in some form, we do provide several other forms of participation.
Slots for Works-in-Progress (WIP) presentations and Birds-of-a-Feather sessions (BOFs) are available on a first-come, first-served basis by sending email to [email protected].
