We are pleased to announce the Eighth Scottish Category Theory  
Seminar. Everyone is welcome. The final programme is still under  
construction but currently we expect to have:

  * Bart Jacobs (TBC): Program semantics, according to Heisenberg and  
to Schroedinger

  * Vincent Danos: Conditional expectation as a functor

  * Ross Duncan: Quantum computing in (almost) any category: an  
introduction to the ZX-calculus

A full programme with abstracts will be available soon at the web  
address above.

If you wish to attend the meeting or would like to join us for dinner
afterwards, you are requested to email scotcats at cis.strath.ac.uk
