This then was more a "Dynamic Language Lounge" then a SqueakBOF, but  
it was
nice nevertheless. Maybe 10 or so people from ECOOP, mostly the  
DYNA07 Workshop
found the way to the c-base, Squeakers, PyPy-Pythoneers and Smalltakers.

We got a nice "tourist tour" to the space-station, with a demo of a  
very cool "multi touch table"
they built last winter. Very impressive! Self-build and self- 
programed (in Python to the delight
of only some of the visitiors).

All in all ECOOP was quite nice. Good Keynotes: Joe Armstrong on  
Erlang ("Smalltalk as it was
meant to be", version 2.0 of his ESUG keynote of last year. Luca  
Cardelli on how theory had to
catch up to OO-Practive over 20 years. Slides:
lucacardelli.name/Slides/2007-08-02%20An%20Accidental%20Simula%20User% 
20(ECOOP%20Prize).pdf

The trace-based "JIT" compilers of Michael Franz are impressively  
simple... ICOOPLS07,
"Andreas Gal, Michael Bebenita, Michael Franz: “One Method At A Time  
Is Quite a Waste of Time”"
Very good idea.

And there was some Squeak:
