The high attendance of roughly 220 was due in part to IBM sales people: as IBM had recently begun to sell APL\360 as a stand-alone product, those in sales sought to learn about the language.<ref name="foster">[[Ray Polivka|Polivka, Ray]] and Jon McGrew.

Attendee [[Garth Foster]] was motivated by the diverse interests represented at SUNY to rename his newsletter ''SHARE*APL\360'' to the ''[[APL Quote-Quad]]'', and to establish the [[APL Implementer's Workshop]]. The latter served to bring the behavior of various APL implementations into closer alignment by offering implementors a forum to discuss design and implementation decisions.<ref name="roots">[[Garth Foster|Foster, Garth]].

A point of focus in early APL conferences was ''CAI'', which stands for Computer Assisted Instruction. Sometimes the acronym CAL, or Computer Assisted Learning, is also used.

At the suggestion of [[wikipedia:NASA|NASA]] employee Cyrus Creveling, a group of attendees of the 1969 conference agreed to hold a second conference at the [[wikipedia:Goddard Space Flight Center|Goddard Space Flight Center]] in [[wikipedia:Greenbelt, Maryland|Greenbelt, Maryland]]. It took place on June 19 and 20, 1970. The conference, reduced in attendance from 220 to 150, was held in the style of a workshop, with presentations and discussion but no papers or proceedings published. At this conference the first formal effort to establish [[SIGAPL]] was made by collecting the required 25 signatures for a petition to the ACM.<ref name="foster"/>

The 1979 APL conference was held in [[wikipedia:Rochester, New York|Rochester, New York]] from May 30 to June 1, and sponsored by [[SIGAPL]] (then STAPL). In part due to the lack of formal 1977 and 1978 conferences, attendance was very high, with over a thousand attendees<ref name="roots"/> and 200 submitted papers. Abstracts could be submitted electronically by the major APL [[time-sharing]] services. Eight invited papers, presented to all participants, were given by notable computer scientists both inside and outside the APL community. In addition to talks, the conference featured a poster display and exhibits of APL implementations, terminals, and books. A banquet talk was given by [[wikipedia:Fred Brooks|Fred Brooks]], with the title <source lang=apl inline>⍉ 1 3 ⍴ 'APL'  ⍝  A Sideways View of APL</source>.<ref>ACM.

The 1981 APL conference was held in [[wikipedia:San Francisco|San Francisco]], California from October 21 to 23. It featured eight invited talks in addition to 50 papers drawn from over 300 submissions, two panel discussions, tutorial lectures, and a poster display.<ref>ACM.
