  3. Four slides on behalf of William

  4. It’s a model It’s a meta-model We need a transformation

  5. It’s a program It’s a language We need a compiler

  6. It’s a type It’s a value We need a semantics

  7. It’s an Elephant

  8. Basic Question Menu • What are the research priorities in this areas? • What are the key technical challenges? • What are the core tools for research on DSLs? • How does a practitioner go about building a DSL? • How do you evaluate the success of a DSL? • Do do you chose the domain for your DSL? • What is a domain, anyway?! • Should there be a DSL'10 or DSL'11? • Should we have a follow-up journal version? • Should we consider having a DSL summer school?

  9. The People Have Spoken Dissenting opinion: 2010 would be too early. Consensus: 2011 should work well, especially after a summer school.

  10. The People Have Spoken Dissenting opinion: We haven’t answered the question of how to build DSLs yet. Rebuttal: But we need to teach what we know, because there is a need for it. Consensus: Let’s do it. Maybe dovetail with GTTSE?
