			CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

		    2009 International Workshop on
	       Foundations of Object-Oriented Languages
			      (FOOL '09)

		       Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN

		      Saturday, 24 January 2009
			Savannah, Georgia, USA
			  Following POPL '09

		http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~aldrich/FOOL09/

The search for sound principles for object-oriented languages has led
to a better understanding of the key concepts of object-oriented
languages and to important developments in type theory, semantics,
program verification, and program development. The FOOL workshops
bring together researchers to share new ideas and results in these
areas.

The next workshop, FOOL '09 will be held in Savannah, Georgia, USA on
Saturday, 24 January 2009, the day after POPL.  The program includes
two invited speakers, six contributed talks, and lunch.

To register for the workshop, use the standard POPL registration form,
available through:

               http://www.regmaster.com/conf/popl2009.html

The POPL early registration deadline ends ****December 19th****.

To keep down the cost of registration, we will not be providing
printed proceedings. All papers will be available online before the
workshop, so you may print any papers you wish to have on hand.
