Dear Squeaklanders -
I am writing to share more exciting news!
Just today, Alan was named "Laureate" (in the Advanced Technology category) by the Inamori Foundation and will receive the 2004 Kyoto Prize! He's hardly had time to "come down" from the excitement of the ACM Turing Award, which he received in New York, just last weekend.
For more on both please see the Squeakland website, specifially these pages:
