Does anyone know why there is no representation from the pure (or almost
pure) functional school (ML, Miranda, Haskell, etc.) in the History of
Programming Languages Conference? The Conference purports to empahsise the
period from the last HOPL Conference (1978) until now, and I would have
thought that PFP had seen most of its development in that period.

Is this an optimistic sign that PFP represents future history? The New
Wave of programming? :-)

Cheers, jas
