Erik Stenman is Giving the Following Talks
Erlang Enhancement Proposal Panel Debate
Since the release of Erlang/OTP on GitHub the possibilities for the Erlang community to contribute to the development of Erlang has increased tremendously. We should leverage this possibility and the increased interest in Erlang to keep Erlang as a living and growing language by letting the community help the language evolve. In this slot, Erik will present the EPP process and committee.
The committee members present at the Erlang Factory will participate in a panel discussion together with the audience discussing the most important EEP proposals.
EEP Proposal list on the erlang.org site.
