Attention Users of Functional Languages: ICFP wants the Benefit of your Experience!

The ACM International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP) is actively soliciting practitioners to write and present Experience Reports that describe how functional programming works---or fails to work---in the real-world.

What is ICFP?

What is an Experience Report?

Possible topics for Experience Reports might include:

insights gained from real-world projects using functional programming

comparison of functional programming with conventional programming in the context of an industrial project or a university curriculum

project-management, business, or legal issues encountered when using functional programming in a real-world project

curricular issues encountered when using functional programming in education

real-world constraints that created special challenges for an implementation of a functional language or for functional programming in general.
