Lambda the Ultimate

I had received the announcement for the Continuation Fest 2008, but then completely forgot about it. Back in mid-April, some neat stuff was going on in Tokyo:

• Demo of persistent delimited continuations in OCaml for nested web transactions, Oleg Kiselyov, [Slides]. (I wish I had seen that a few years back when I was fooling with the Infernal Device. Just beautiful.)
• How to implement continuation only language in gcc 4.x, Shinji Kono, [Slides].
• Continuing from the past: An approach to building dynamically upgradable applications, Takuo Watanabe and Yuichi Tanaka, [Slides].
• Plus others....
