POPLOG on a LiveCD and Virtual Appliance

POPLOG is an integrated toolkit providing a highly extendable collection of languages and tools suitable for absolute beginners, advanced researchers and system programmers. POPLOG’s core language is POP-11, which was developed by Robin Popplestone, a pioneer in the fields of machine intelligence and robotics. Thus, when the British government created the Alvey Programme as a reaction to the Japanese Fifth generation computer project, POPLOG became a core component of many projects. You can experience this part of computing history for yourself by downloading a SliTaz LiveCD containing POPLOG or a VMware Virtual Appliance.

Re: POPLOG on a LiveCD and Virtual Appliance

One of the issues with POPLOG is its appearant proprietary nature. However, an open source alternative has been worked on for users, developers, and researchers alike to use.

openpoplog.sourceforge.net

I am not sure what the exact point of POPLOG is, but if it was to ever reach the SliTaz repositories in the format OpenPoplog, I'd be sure to check it out.
