World: r3wp

it works under Windows XP, Opera and Firefox
Can the DLLs be installed automaticly ?

@WuJian: I'm not a software expert, just a Rebol enthusiastic user! 
But it should be possible.

@oldes: Facebook started to freeze groups, during tha next week "worthy 
groups" will be updated to the new style/feature, "unworthy groups" 
will be archived. In both cases all users will be deleted and users 
wil have to join again to the group!
P.S. I sent you a message trough Facebook

wow what a fail!  they could have built it as an "update this group" 
button which the group owners have a time lapse to activate or then 
its archived.

It's like that, I'm an administrator, but not the creator, so I ndot' 
see any button! Is a creator push the button, you loose all users, 
BUT you maintain postos, phots and videos... It's stupid! How can 
you invite again thousands of users?

you know.. managing a single dimension array is quite complex for 
programmers coming out of school nowadays.   


where is the iterator class for "update facebook users list" in jquery, 
 .net,  or java?    ;-)

I pushed the button and it's updated probably... FB is stupid as 
you can have many groups with the same name. I visit it just a few 
times pre year.

I am an author of one group, closed nature, student (reunion) type. 
I can't see any update button? We have xy events there, photos, comments. 
I hope we will not loose that group?

Welcome to the cloud

Maybe after it's lost, you can convince your study mates to use AltME? 
;-)

Oldes: It seems to have worked, I got an email saying that it's been 
upgraded, and I'm still a member of it

Apparently one of the upgraded features is an automatic email subscription 
to all new posts in the group

WOW! All went ok for Rebol group, but if you look at Facebook help 
forum there are a lot of people angry about loosing ther memebers! 
Ehy! Where are the videos I uploaded??? NOOOOooooooo!

You are most welcome in Google Plus. :-)

Are there gropups on Google plus? Or just circles?

Not yet, I think.

Do you think, that Google+ might become a competition to Facebook, 
or will it just fade-out as their Wave did?

All depends on the number of users, which is climbing steadily.

I think that many people won't drop their facebook account, so somehow 
there will be an integration between them, in a middle term..

people I know who know about google + tend to prefer its ideas so 
far.     A lot of people I know don't like facebook at all (it just 
wastes so much time) but don't really have an alternative.  


The fact that Google plus is tackling the problem of separating your 
social circles *FIRST* is, to me, a good indication that they've 
done their homework into how they can compete which facebook.

Simply, I put trust  on google to keep my personal data (and not 
to sell them) because I know they make their money without this urge.

Facebook on the contrary never stoped to ly about the privacy topic. 
Year after year, they experimented new way to exploit your credulity 
to sell your personal data.

From the beginning I felt this trap will arrive , tha"t why I never 
entered in that Facebook mania.

The one thing I hate about Goggle is that they usually write pretty 
good code  :-)

I'm resisting right now, but I feel like it won't be long before 
I cave in.  I already really like what I've seen so far.

my biggest complaints are the lack of groups and also some silly 
UI bugs. If I choose to follow a popular person and he posts something 
with 500 responses, those 500 responses cannot be collapsed. I have 
to scroll through them.

for sure their interface will improve, But I think Google has a much 
better record for making things better in time... 


IMHO, Facebook hasn't really changed at all in years.  Its all cosmetics, 
and even then I can't really tell you what its improved.  I've still 
got a useless stream of hundreds of posts a day which I can't *easily* 
manage.  configuring **anything** in FB is tedious to say the least. 
  


And the idea of "annoy everyone you know" and "give your personal 
data to unknown companies, without my conscent" is not something 
I readily enjoy. 

even friend lists are limited in length!   basically, the whole UI 
is a disaster.

I'm sure google will do a lot of things better by integrating with 
other google sites like google docs, maps, gmail,  android-things, 
youtube, news etc.

facebook cannot integrate with them easily and they have a loooong 
way to build similar stuff.

Here is a poll result from techtree.com for the question: Will you 
leave Facebook to join Google+?
http://www.techtree.com/techtree/jsp/pollResult.jsp?poll_id=633

I get red/green/blue but no legend...

R = Yes, definitely! [230] [29%]
G =  Yes, but I will continue using Facebook as well [406] [52%]
B = No, I would rather stick with Facebook [147] [19%]

Thanks, that changes the picture

Whoops, I had the wrong group selected. Sorry for the reply in Announce 
- please consider it posted here.

I downloaded the archive before the retraction and it does have very 
recent source files in it ...

Robert - thanks a lot, I really enjoyed run-tests.r3 demo, watching 
how GUI moves around in an automated fashion :-)

Thx. This testing part is absolut fundamental for us. We are constantly 
extending it and will add reports so we see what tests are there, 
what has been coverered etc.

Robert and company. Thank you so much.

Thanks for the report, Anton, correcting the INCLUDE doc.

Oldes, thank you for uploading those.

you are welcome... I just added rectangle-pack script and included 
ImageMagick dependencies which would be needed in some other scripts 
which I use.

Thanks for your diligence on including us in INCLUDE  Ladislav.  
I use it everyday.

I am glad it is of use.

World Programming Language: is that a REBOL clone?

Yes, you can say that. Or a REBOL replacement for some applications, 
where REBOL isn't suited.

Will this language be an open or closed source project?

Geomol, this is your language?

I think not, because - who would come-up with yet another REBOL clone? 
:-)

On the other side - Geomol is fan of various astronomy images, so 
it might be him :-)

Yes, it's mine.

Will this language be an open or closed source project?


Question has been noted. I'll collect questions and make a QA here 
in AltME around release time. The countdown might answer questions 
and/or inspire people for new questions.

Hehe :-) Very little is said, but questions come to mind for sure 
- what is the main target? Is it closer to R2, R3, RED, Topaz architecture?

And of course, very typical question - what was the main montivation, 
aka - why yet another language? :-)

Hmm, so World can be runtime compiled :-)

Geomol, if don't have any other target, why don't you work on Red? 
Or fork a project from Red?
