and scientific computing, artificial intelligence, data mining,
business intelligence, bio-informatics, telecommunications and
networking, the semantic web, music, and entertainment technologies.

A complete speakers list is now available on-line.

4. Running Allegro Common Lisp on Apple Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger)

Allegro CL works fine on Apple Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), but it requires
patches. Patching Allegro (6.2, 6.2 Trial and 7.0) is easiest if you
do it before your Mac OS X 10.4 upgrade, as simple as evaluating
(sys:update-allegro) and running update.sh in the Allegro directory.

If you get a new system with Mac OS X 10.4 pre-installed or upgrade
before patching Allegro CL, following the instructions for Allegro CL
6.2 or Allegro CL 7.0, depending on which version of Allegro you have.
