I got to learn about it when I attended ECOOP'99.

Never saw it outside the conference.




BETA was the beginner's language at the University of Dortmund (Germany) back in 1996/7/8. Never saw it outside of these buildings.

Yes, I still have my book "Object Oriented Programming in the BETA Programming Language" by Madsen/Møller-Pedersen/Nygaard with a price tag of 80 DM in 1997 (> 40 EUR now) (I now live in Berlin)
