First let me say, I really *really* appreciate all the feedback I have had on my past articles on Cat. So far all my article submissions have been rejected. :-( I submitted three different articles to International Conference of Functional Programming (ICFP), Compiler Construction (CC), Programming Language Design and Implementation (PLDI) ). These are high-end conferences with high-rejection rates. In retrospect they were out of my league, but I did have helpful reviews. Overall the reviews were encouraging, but were clear on the fact that I had a lot of work to do, and that I wasn't yet ready to play in the big leagues. I plan on incorporating the review feedback and resubmitting to an appropriate workshop or symposium. For the time being I have been contracted to provide Doctor Dobbs with an article about Cat. I talk quite a bit about Joy and concatenative languages in general. It is due Monday, but if anyone has time to share comments or suggestions before then I would be most appreciative. I have put a draft of the article online at http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dgjz7z25_58f4zzg8dz . If I make any big mistakes, or inaccuracies, or I am unfair I apologize in advance. Please let me know so that I can correct it. I will have a chance to make small changes to the galley proof before the article goes to the printer. Hopefully this will help give a bit more mainstream recognition to the benefits of concatenative languages! Thanks, Christopher
