I suspect it might be a pretty long distance from the stuff covered here
to the audience I'd be addressing, since it's often talking about things
a decade in the future of your average Java programmer, if indeed it
ever arives at all, but in ten minutes I can give a brief overview of
what ICFP is, if you think it's worthwhile.

Can I get some thoughts on there from others who've had a look through
the stuff on http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~gmh/icfp09.html on whether any
of that looks interesting and warrants further explanation?
