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:

and

It's been a most remarkable year!  We are all so proud of this 
recognition given to Alan.
cheers,
Kim
