Grebox 0.2.3 is out !  

A bug appeared after intalling MingW GCC as paths were relatives 
the whole compilation stuff was messed up. 

So now path are set to Static and and compilation should work perfectly.

for those interrested: http://shadwolf.free.fr/grebox.0.2.3.zip

previous link is wrong http://shadwolf.free.fr/grebox-0.2.3.zip

completely rebuilt CGR host-kit, with a few readme files, 3 examples 
and yes finally, the crashing bug found and cured.

Special Thanks go to Andreas for helping out on a few things including 
a gcc makefile and a lot of patience.  :-)

http://tryrebol.esperconsultancy.nlwas running on a combination 
of QuarterMaster and my own CMS. Over the past few weeks, I've extended 
the CMS enough to move the whole site to it

I'm still using QuarterMaster for sites where I need session and 
user management

Sunanda noted that evaluation of R3 formulas was outdated. I adapted 
it to the new R3 A109 now. Values are bound to the new LIB context 
and new SET values are bound to the user context

Upgraded R3 on http://tryrebol.esperconsultancy.nlto alpha 110

I upgraded the host kit on Syllable Desktop and Syllable Server to 
alpha 110. Here's the build recipe:

http://syllable.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/syllable/syllable/system/apps/utils/Builder/packages/REBOL-Core--current/

R3 RebDev now works for the first time on Desktop. I suspect this 
also fixes the same error message people had with it on the Amiga 
port

I've had recently the opportunity to dust off my experimental LDAP 
driver code, so I've decided to release it as-is, even if it's unfinished, 
at least querying the server and retrieving data is supported. Download 
at: http://softinnov.org/dl/ldap-protocol.r


The query dialect is probably not working 100%, but at least basic 
queries should do the job. I don't intend to implement more features 
now because I don't have any needs for a LDAP driver, but I'll try 
to fix the query dialect if required by users. I might accept to 
add the missing features and polish it under contracted work or bounty 
(if high enough).

Basic usage syntax and examples can be found in the file header.
Please use Ann-reply group for feedbacks.

Extensions for R3 : simple TTS, Matlab extension, Windows Api extension, 

pages updated with the new versions (binaries and sources) compatibles 
a110 :

http://www.colineau.fr/rebol/R3_extensions.html

Originally, it was me, who started the "Exceptions" article. Due 
to the way how Brian handled my code in it:

- intendedly introducing bugs to it

, due to the way how he handled my proposals in the article


- changing my proposals in a way effectively disrespecting my right 
to propose anything


, and due to fact, that he introduced too many unsubstantiated (some 
even ureadable for me) claims to the article, I decided to create 
a new page at

http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Exception_proposals

Advantages:

- the page's goal is to not introduce unsubstantiated claims

- the page is meant for everybody to add his own thoughts / proposals 
as long as he does not do willful changes disrespecting the right 
of other people to propose something


Mr. Brian Hawley is not welcome in hope, that the "Exceptions" page 
he turned into his own sandbox would suffice for his needs.

Thanks for clarifying Ladislav.

Sorry. I was just adding the information from the last time the subject 
was discussed, and factors that weren't considered. No offence was 
intended. I'll stay out of this one if you prefer. The old pages 
are still there for reference.

If anyone wants to fix or comment on any remaining unsubstantiated 
claims in the other page, go ahead. Those related to usability *are* 
substantiated, but I have left out the details to avoid embarrasing 
anyone.

Publish a script on rebol.org called get-rebol-ressources.r :

The main goal of this script is to download important ressources 
for REBOL.

So everywhere in the world, download a CORE version of REBOL and 
this script, and you can get all the important REBOL ressources.
Must add link to softinnov product.

1.  Windows Platform  only

2. prompt  "Yes/No"  before downloading .  In case some of  the files 
may have been in local disk.

Ressources -- Is that the French way of presenting that name? :-)

yep

Sorry, my english is very poor. Like a lot of french people.

So, what is the english terms ?

Why Windows Platform only ?

English spell it Resources.

Some words like Color and Colour -- same meaning, different spelling

btw... please discussion about announcements in ann-reply group. 
 :-)

Updated my ImageMagick extension and doc. It is now possible to exchange 
image data between Rebol and ImageMagick without using disk files, 
thanks to the "mpr:" (memory program register) format which allows 
in-memory save and recover.

http://www.colineau.fr/rebol/R3_extensions.html(refresh the page 
in your web navigator)

should be rebolweeked :-)

let's get some feedback before ;-)

Put a new version of get-rebol-ressources.r on rebol.org : download 
contents for platform.
Test only under Windows platform.

Here's an odd problem I need help with:

I will monitor Ann-Reply group for your comments.

A call to french reboleur :

Nous cherchons a promouvoir REBOL au sein de la communauté developpez.com.

Nous sommes donc en quête de bonnes volonté pour écrire des cours/tutoriels, 
des articles sur REBOL, des critiques des livres, animer un blog, 
etc...
Les bonnes volontés peuvent se déclarer sur :

(we are seeking for french volunteers to promote REBOL on french 
programing site developpez.com)

With my host kit environment updated to A110, I've started extension 
writing. It was rather difficult to get the first dummy extension 
working because the documentation and example sources are woefully 
out of date, so I had to cobble things together from all corners 
and the discussions here

I've made it into a Hello World style example extension that works 
on both Syllable Desktop and Syllable Server. There are also hints 
for Windows in the makefile. The sources are here:

http://syllable.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/syllable/syllable/system/apps/utils/Builder/packages/HelloREBOL-Extension--current/

Hi Kaj, if the extension and host kit and extension instruction are 
out of date then please update for some of us newbies.

I just did for the example code, but I can't with the documentation, 
because it's RT's closed system

Instructions are now on OSNews:

http://www.osnews.com/story/24071/Syllable_Runs_First_REBOL_3_Extension

http://www.fm.tul.cz/~ladislav/rebol/nistclock.r

updated, changes: - server list updated

Re "How to solve systems of linear equations in REBOL?" - generally, 
you can use the matrix operations posted to my site:

http://www.fm.tul.cz/~ladislav/rebol/matrix.r

So, we are back online with our AltME world. We mostly recovered 
everything thanks to Cyphre's effort. Now everything is backed up 
in 6h intervalls. Won't happen again.... back to work on R3-GUI stuff.

cool :-)

Carl is back too.

Carl rebooted:)

I've ported my CMS to REBOL 3. It runs on both REBOL 3 and REBOL 
2 now, with a set of compatibility functions

That also allows me to run it on Syllable Desktop now :-)

It cost me two weeks. That was disappointing, especially since I 
had already ported it once. I'm starting to forget the years, but 
that was almost two years ago. Some of the bugs that blocked me from 
complete functionality then are still there, but I compensated for 
them

I suppose it's one of the largest pieces of software currently running 
on R3. It's around 130 KB, approaching 4000 lines
