[TYPES/announce] ML Family Workshop 2021: first call for short abstracts and presentations

[Jonathan Protzenko]

(tl;dr)

The ML family workshop is back, and will be held virtually along with 
ICFP 2021. The workshop does not have proceedings, making it the perfect 
venue to run some ideas with the community or present some work in 
progress within a friendly environment. The PC has a broad expertise and 
submissions are 3 pages long: when in doubt, just submit!

(long version)

We are happy to announce that the ML Family Workshop is back for its 
2021 edition, which we will be held online on Thursday August 26th, in 
conjunction with ICFP 2021.

The ML family workshop warmly welcomes submission touching on the 
programming languages traditionally seen as part of the "ML family" 
(Standard ML, OCaml, F#, CakeML, SML#, Manticore, MetaOCaml, etc.). The 
scope of the workshop includes all aspects of the design, semantics, 
theory, application, implementation, and teaching of the members of the 
ML family. We also encourage presentations from related languages (such 
as Haskell, Scala, Rust, Nemerle, Links, Koka, F*, Eff, ATS, etc), to 
exchange experience of further developing ML ideas.
