Vendors’ Forum¶
Date: 26th April at 2.00pm

For the last two years, we have reserved a meeting for vendors of APL interpreters to come along and tell us about the new “goodies” they have in store for us. This has proved very successful, so this year we continue the tradition.

| IBM | MicroAPL | REUTER:FILE (formerly I.P. Sharp) |
