Pike Users Worldwide Converge on Essen Next Week

This years largest Pike event will be the Pike Camp in Essen, Germany from October 13th through the 19th.



Users and developers of the Pike Language will be arriving in Essen from all over the world, including Sweden, USA, Latvia, Hungary, Austria, France and Germany for a week of talks, technical workshops and tutorials. Included in the week's events are the 3rd annual Pike Conference, 2nd annual Caudium conference, sTeam developer day and PSYC MODIv: the 5th PSYC modification event. This year's keynote will be delivered by Uwe Aßmann, Chair of Software Engineering at Technical University of Dresden, on "Pike between UML and Java: a use case in University Education."

Registration is ongoing, and more information is available from the Camp and Conference websites, found below.

About Pike

Pike is a dynamic programming language with a syntax similar to Java and C. It is simple to learn, does not require long compilation passes and has powerful built-in data types allowing simple and really fast data manipulation. Pike is a reimplementation of the LPC language, its application domain spans anything from the world of the Net to the world of multimedia applications, or environments where your shell could use some spicy text processing or system administration tools. Your imagination sets the limit, but Pike will probably extend it far beyond what you previously considered within reach.
