Just making sure this post doesn't get lost in the shuffle. Ambrose's contributions to core.match have been incredible and his continuing contributions on core.logic in terms of tutorials and documentation are an essential resource.
It would be a serious loss if Ambrose doesn't make it to the Conj so that he can share his fantastic expertise about these libraries with the community. I have little doubt that he'll be a key contributor to the predicate dispatch evolution of core.match as well the constraint logic programming evolution of core.logic. Gerald Sussman at Strange Loop expressed his belief that this paradigm could have deep implications for how we think about problems and develop software and others like Peter Van Roy have been saying this for a while now. Please help out in any way that you can!
