Transputers are normally programmed in the computer language OCCAM.
The occam user group is an informal institution that holds
meetings and publishes newsletters and such.
In the UK, the parent organisation holds a biannual conference which
passes under the unassuming title of a 'technical meeting', it
publishes a biannual newsletter, and organises a number of special
interest groups. The group secretary is

Because of the Data Protection Act, you will have to sign a piece of
paper letting him keep your name on a machine. Membership is however
free, thanks to the support of INMOS; all you need to do is to send the
secretary your address, he will send you the form. The chairman and
general big wheel of the UK group is

The occam mailing list is a mailing list for messages discussing

it gets used for, what's written about it, and that sort of thing.
That sort of thing includes my posting occasional oug 'business'
messages.
