BAA London
Contents
Introduction
BAA London is a discussion group about APL. It is loosely affiliated to the British APL Association (BAA) but you don't have to be a member of the BAA to come to the meetings. Visitors to London and strangers to APL and its dialects are always welcome at our meetings.
Currently we meet at 2pm on the last Friday of the month at the Knights Templar
We are still open to suggestions on what to do, how to do it, and where best to meet. Go to RunningBAAlondon if you want to follow the discussions about how we should do it.
Next Meeting of BAA London
Next Meeting of BAA London
The next meeting in August 2010 has yet to be arranged. The last Friday is the day before the Bank holiday Monday and so was not thought ot be a suitable time slot.
Discussions about topics, location, and any need to change the date will appear BAALondon GoogleGroup soon. If you have a topic that you would like to see on the agenda go there and tell us, whether it is something you want to hear about or something you want to say.
We are the agenda. Add your name if you are going to attend, plus a topic if you want to raise one. Or just email your ideas and questions to me <wiki AT SPAMFREE ellismorgan DOT co DOT uk>.

meetings in 2010. |

last few meetings in 2009. |
|
The seventh BAA London meeting was held on 27 August 2009 - more on Direct Development. |
|
StephenTaylor spoke about Direct Development, a conversation he has been developing about how software gets developed in APL and some other dynamic languages. |
|
Fifth meeting on 15 May 2009 … see also TenGoodThingsAboutApl. |
|
PhilLast on his code repository system, plus various discussions. |
|
Education in APL. |
|
Started with no theme, but we moved to holding a single meeting to discuss how we should organise ourselves. |
|
Was combined with a Christmas party and no minutes were kept. |
|
The first meeting had no theme and saw small group discussions in corners of the room. |
Publicity
Before each meeting we ask a group member to post its details in the following places:
Members are encouraged to do the same in places we may not otherwise think of, and to post links to the WIKI there too. To avoid duplication this is where I know links have been put:

A reminder should be sent to BAALondon Google Group and comp.lang.apl a week before the meeting.
Members
Add your name
Members are invited to add their names here. To do so you need to be a member of the WIKI in the trusted group. If you would like me to add your name without joining, just send me an email <wiki AT SPAMFREE ellismorgan DOT co DOT uk>. You are also welcome to email me if you want to do it yourself but can not find the help you need. That will test my WIKI skills, but before you do take a look here HelpForBeginners.
Critique
This page was created by EllisMorgan, starting on 3 March 2009. It is the first wiki page of any size I have created and I am learning as I go along. If you see anything you think can be improved, just go ahead and do it. But if your changes amount to a sizeable redesign and overhaul it might be polite to leave some reasons for your actions here. In any event please use the comment field provided with the editor so we can see what is happening from the page's "info" button.
Design Decisions
For example, in the Previous meetings section should I explain that the blue Baalxxxx entries are links to full minutes of each meeting and that their name tells you the month and year of the meeting? My view is that it is very obvious and when you link to the minutes there is more than enough detail there.
Keep it short
Maintaining this wiki page is a good subject for "how we run the group", so if you want to start a lengthy discussion about it, please move to BAALondon GoogleGroup.
