This is a (very) brief news shot regarding Edinburgh Standard ML. I've mailed
directly people I've accumulated into a mailing list, so firstly: if anybody
wants to be on such a list, and haven't received any such posting, please let
me know.
   Secondly: we'd be interested to find out a little about what's being done
with ML at the various sites we've sent systems to - not for any administrative
reasons, but just so that we can answer enquiries of the form "Is anybody using
ML to do such-and-such?" or "Are any universities teaching ML for such-and-such
a course?". This sort of feedback can also give us some perspective on how to
develop future systems. We aren't after any great detail - a sentence or two
is fine. We are particularly keen to receive some feedback on ML teaching: how
much of the language (basics, core language, modules) is being presented to
which classes of students (introductory CS, other subjects, graduates, etc.),
and which, if any, course texts are being used - but any and all information
would be welcomed.
   Feedback, please, to the address below.
