World: r3wp

some code supplied from anton that I was about to use.... has disapeared... 
I'm pretty sure in was in a group called ftp

I did a full search in altme and didn't find it.

nope ... discussions I had with anton this spring.

btw, IMHO,  the current altme droppings aren't due to networking 
speed/internet woes ... right now, when I post I get a turnaround 
well below half a second.

It almost feels instantaneous.  still I must relog every so often, 
If I want to be syncing again.  the server just stops responding 
after a few minutes.  :-(

I think it's the server playing up ... not network issues per se

still playing up today ...

17,000 posts in this world so far already this year, and only 18,000 
for the whole of last year.

Must be the effect of R3

NB: with regards to Prefixing group names... just today... had the 
groups been prefixed, I would have found a post I have been looking 
for the better part of an hour... just cause I'd have noticed the 
group name next to network related groups... I actually looked at 
the name and never *clicked* it was a network group...  ' : - /

Use the search tool ... it's your friend

I did... 3 different searches... but didn't get to any thing that 
pointed to that post...

just fell in between the cracks.

I searched for all posts by Anton with the word "progress" since 
the beginning of this year

as always... Carl passes by like a breeze hehehe

wow.. that didn't drop!   ;-)

Graham: <17,000 posts in this world so far already this year>

That's [web-public] posts. Actual world size is around twice that 
(*), though I don't have a count of posts-by -year.


(*) No one of us can know the precise world size --- we do not all 
see the private groups; nor do we all see the PMs between everyone.

I also have CDR for change-dir+to-rebol-file.

Dang, wrong group. :-\

I am really happy that it seems "internet busy" thing is gone .. 
I missed this place last days and it wasn't possible to be efectively 
here either

am I the only one getting sporadic Altme world outages?

no

Saw an outage about 30 minutes ago.....Not sure when it started.

CommonTag has a press release

http://www.prweb.com/releases/CommonTag/2009/prweb2522914.htm

one of the companies involved in this is Zemanta.. a startup from 
slovenia.. I've been at their place few times..

AltME dropping out frequently for me during the last  5 hours or 
so.

same here

Over the last day for me.

Yes, me too --- AltME REBOL3 has gone erractic again....I am watching 
it connect and disconnect every few minutes.


AltME's world check repeatedly shows it as available and then not 
responding(or not available) in a very short cycle:
www.altme.com/check.html

I've sent  a feedback to RT about this.

Connection suddenly went stable here an hour ago.

Looks good from here too.

the lights are back on again??

Seems to be.

Response from FT to feedback message:
<Rebooted it. Let's see what happens.>

Not sure if that means the server or the AltME process.....But things 
do seem better.

does already exist any channel private or public about concurrency/paralel/distributed 
computing ? if there isn't one.. does anyone else think we should 
have one?

I would like to see a channel for this.
concurrency + virtualisation + multicore = next step

I have some video about distrb. computing with rebol to post but 
I don't know whre to post it

Advocacy?

It's not so much of probotional video .. more a possible discussion 
.. I posted it to Core

altme is not playing nice with Windows 7.

What is the problem with Windows 7? 2,5 years on Vista here, and 
no single problem ....

When AltME is in full screen mode, the windows task bar now intrudes 
into the typing area as though Rebol doesn't know about the task 
bar.  I suspect it is not specific to Altme.

Also, when I drag a short cut to the startmenu, it no longer says 
shortcut to Altme, but Rebol -View System.

Hmm... only just installed windows 7 last night ( took about 5 hours 
).  I now see that browsers have the same issue .... maybe programs 
have to be updated for W7.

Could it be "XP emulation" mode that's the problem?

I didn't set anything...

A way to improve AltME's hyperlink rendering.

do http://anton.wildit.net.au/rebol/doc/overlaid-hyperlink-text-face.r

nice. Now we need to somehow notice Carl the fix exists ....

Good work, Anton!
