Colloque APL

Colloque APL was a conference held in Paris on September 9th and 10th, 1971: the first to be held outside the USA. Sponsored by the IRIA research institute and organized by Phil Abrams, Yves Raynaud, and Louis Robichaud, the conference drew over 200 attendees and included 26 papers. While Colloque APL was not part of the yearly sequence of APL conferences as it was held the same year as APL71, it was a precursor to later European APL conferences such as APL75 and APL80.
