[TYPES/announce] Coq-6: Call for participation

[Viktor Vafeiadis]

The 6th Coq Workshop
July 18, 2014 · Vienna, Austria

http://vsl2014.at/pages/Coq-index.html

The Coq Workshop series brings together Coq users, developers, and contributors.  While conferences like ITP provide a venue for traditional research papers, the Coq Workshop focuses on strengthening the Coq community and providing a forum for discussing practical issues, including the future of the Coq software and its associated ecosystem of libraries and tools.  Thus, the workshop will be organized around informal presentations and discussions, supplemented with invited talks.
