As a heads-up, it is now being bandied about for today's RCSS meeting 
to be delayed 2 weeks again like September's, but this time because 
we only came up with content by today, which is too late for 
announcing etc.  If this went ahead, it would conflict with the 
Victoria.pm for October, so besides Peter not missing out, that's 
another reason for us to delay, or for them to not delay in this way.

Perhaps "general purpose dynamic languages"?
