The '''History of Programming Languages conference''' is held by [[wikipedia:SIGPLAN|SIGPLAN]] to discuss and record the history of programming language development. It is notable to APL historians because of the very detailed papers presented at the 1978 and 2020 conferences. [[wikipedia:ACM|ACM]] SIGPLAN is the Special Interest Group on Programming Languages; while [[SIGAPL]] is a chapter of SIGPLAN, it is not directly associated with HOPL. | The '''History of Programming Languages conference''' is held by [[wikipedia:SIGPLAN|SIGPLAN]] to discuss and record the history of programming language development.
