umm so the registration is not over yet i havent seen the conference discussed here much yet and it would be nice to see some > * Send the title and a description of what you will present to con@MAILHOST > until 2013-04-15. i was thinking about two topics i could give a talk on, one is about musl libc and another about general programming language issues 1) Bugs found by musl (what happens when a high quality libc meets our modern software ecosystem) i plan to pick a few issues and show how a new libc can be (and is) beneficial, an assorted list for the curious: http://nsz.repo.hu/musl/bugs.html 2) The costs of abstraction (why still c is the only serious programming language) i dont have much to show for this yet, but i wrote about a memory management issue recently that is related: http://port70.net/~nsz/41_oom.html these topics are only tangentially relevant to suckless so i thought i'll put them out here before registering
