I used to use pop11 some time ago in the artificial intelligence arena and I'd like to know if anyone out there is using the pop11 programming language commercially now and if so what for?

A:
I have been planning a commercial project for 4 months now, that studies what the user does on a daily/weekly/monthly/yearly basis with their computer, and tries to predict what the user will and/or may need to do next. And it will then automate the process.
This project is in development. If you're interested; A website and blog will be up by the end of the year, if all goes well...

A:
Never used it myself, but here a quote of what Aaron Sloman wrote (Poplog is the complete system, which includes Lisp, Prolog and ML compiler written on top of Pop-11 programming language, plus some other packages and libraries):
Poplog was already a well engineered, robust and highly successful commercial product in the 1990s, developed jointly by Sussex University and ISL (Integral Solutions Ltd), and marketed by ISL, who used it to develop the widely used Clementine data-mining system, until 1998, when ISL was bought by SPSS (for Clementine -- now extended and re-named PASW).
