Abstract
At the SIGPLAN '83 conference, a panel discussion was held to discuss what the important programming language issues might be in the 1980's. This paper is an edited transcript of the discussion.I want to thank John White, General Chairman for the conference, who suggested that we have the panel and Richard Probst and Tim Learmont from U.C. Berkeley who recorded and transcribed the discussion. In the transcript below we have identified the speakers where possible. We apologize to those members of the audience whose comments are included below but who are not identified because we did not know their name.Keywords
