The conference program will focus on the pragmatics and experience of designing languages, implementing compilers, and building language tools that target managed execution platforms such as the DLR, .NET CLR and other implementations of the ECMA CLI.

How to get real programming tools into the hands of real programmers to solve real problems
How researchers and practitioners can learn from each other to make this happen.
