News about Coq

Coq 8.4 is available for beta-testing. More on the Coq 8.4 web page...

Version 8.3pl3 of Coq fixes several bugs of version 8.3pl2. At the same time, new patch-level releases of 8.1 and 8.2 have been released to fix critical bugs related to sort-polymorphism of inductive types.

For 8.3pl3, see the CHANGES file for a selected list of changes since 8.3pl2.

The Coq Workshop 201! will be held on August 26 at Nijmegen, as part of ITP 2011.

The 3rd Asian-Pacific Summer School on Formal Methods will be held in Suzhou, China in August 13-21, 2011.

The objective is to teach students the principles and practice of programming with the proof assistant Coq, as in previous years (2009 and 2010), and to show them the state of art applications of proof assistants and theorem provers in formal methods.

Version 8.3pl2 of Coq fixes several bugs of version 8.3pl1. In particular, it provides compatibility for compiling Coq from sources with the latest versions of Objective Caml and Camlp5. More information to be found in the CHANGES file.

We are pleased to announce the final release of Coq 8.3 which includes a new tactic (nsatz, standing for Hilbert's NullStellensatz, that extends ring to systems of polynomial equations) and a few new libraries (a certification of mergesort, a new library of finite sets with computational and logical contents separated).

This version also comes with many improvements of existing features, especially regarding the tactics, the module system, extraction, the type classes, the program command, libraries, coqdoc. Here is an excerpt:

Coq Modulo Theories (CoqMT) is an extension of the Coq proof assistant (8.2) that embeds, in its computational mechanism, validity entailment for user-defined first-order equational theories.

The alpha-release is out.

The 2nd Asian-Pacific Coq Summer School will take place from the 20th to the 27th of August 2010 at Tsinghua University, Beijing, China.

This summer school will provide an up-to-date one-week introduction by European experts to the Coq proof assistant. This course is intended to Master and PhD students, and professors and researchers interested in learning how to use this state-of-the-art tool.

The Coq Workshop 2010 will be held on July 9 at Edinburgh. The program is out.

The Coq developpers are pleased to announce the release of the beta version of Coq 8.3. This release intends to give the curious and impatient users of Coq a flavour of what Coq 8.3 will be. To see what is new in this version of Coq, please refer to the CHANGES file.

Please be aware that this release should be considered as unstable, and should not be used as a production environment.

Now that you have been warned, you can download the source files.
