We've also discussed the fact that May 1964 makes the next VCF a close proximity to the anniversary of the first release of the Basic Programming Language. On Mon, Apr 10, 2023 at 11:56 AM David Riley via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

I don't know if anybody has talked about themes for VCF East 2024, but I realized that Sunday, April 7, 2024 will be the 60th anniversary of the launch of the IBM System/360. That will also be the weekend _after_ Easter, and thus be around the time when we would be holding VCF East 2024. I think that this is a very good opportunity to take advantage of these coincidences and do a System/360 or IBM mainframe theme.
Thoughts?
