        CALL FOR WORKSHOP AND CO-LOCATED EVENT PROPOSALS
                            ICFP 2017
 22nd ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming


                      September 3-9, 2017  
                     Oxford, United Kingdom
             http://conf.researchr.org/home/icfp-2017

The 22nd ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming
will be held in Oxford, United Kingdom on September 3-9, 2017. ICFP
provides a forum for researchers and developers to hear about the latest
work on the design, implementations, principles, and uses of functional
programming.

Proposals are invited for workshops (and other co-located events, such
as tutorials) to be affiliated with ICFP 2017 and sponsored by
SIGPLAN. These events should be less formal and more focused than ICFP
itself, include sessions that enable interaction among the attendees,
and foster the exchange of new ideas. The preference is for one-day
events, but other schedules can also be considered.

The workshops are scheduled to occur on September 3 (the day
before ICFP) and September 7-9 (the three days after ICFP).
