World: r3wp

there is a round table discussion...based on the schedule on the 
site

Yes

Yeah, we are going from formal talks to round table like talks.

James, your in Califoria?

you're

Yes.

Rancho Cucamonga to be exact. (work)

You want me to get you a double-double animal style?

ok..quick one.

did Carl goes into details on rebol on Mac?

I would think moving foward...support will be for OS 10.3 and above, 
right?..

any confirmation ?

Carl did not go into detail, but did talk about the fact he was happy 
to get it out the door, and is planning to update it more often.

James, oh, you are about 1 hour from our Burbank Office.

did Carl go into details on anything actually? Or was his talk more 
of general speach about what could be done, how could it be done 
etc.?

any conference translation so far ?

General Speach.

im going crazy here i need to know whats happening ?

No, this is a very small group, and very focused on the talks, but 
it is being videod, and I think it will be good quality this time.

Gab is stepping people through the rocess of building RebService 
apps.  It is quite simple though.  So simple (from my view) that 
there is not much to talk about.

now the secret is out!...building rebservice is simple.

and this altme group is web-public...in time it will be Googled

:-)

did you said video ?

Can Gab paste an example for us?

...not to run, but to see?

Yeksoon -- but the secret will probably drop of of the last 300 messages 
long before Google gets to it. Secrets are safe in a fast-moving 
Altme group

I just fear one thing - we heard lot's of nice announcements last 
year - Rebservices, BCD, rebin, RIF, language plug-ins, etc etc. 
None of them actually happened (public release). So now I wonder, 
if there is actually anything concrete in the pipeline this time. 
You know - it is nice to say, that next year we will see Rebol to 
spread x-fold, but such claim has to be supported by some conrete 
plan ...

Is this like eFish's '7-minutes' presentation? :o)

every year..there will be a 'too simple' to do presentation

Petr -- I agree.

Let's hope there is a "review of last year's minutes" somewhere on 
the agenda.

what about developers who need a cutting edge tool and whant to keep 
competitive level against java or php ?

Tool, like what?

he means Rebol, competitive Rebol, progressing Rebol :-)

rebol of course, and i mean the new enhacements rebol is planning 
async, vid or gui, multitasking (if ever) etc...

the way I see..pieces are fallig in place..

Carl seems to be rebuilding the rebol team (my view)

:-)

IMHO, it really comes down to just producing things. Make cool, useful 
apps and the programmers will come.

GUI will continue to evolve (VID or not )...this is mention in the 
key note..and I think Reb-GUI is supporting it in that direction 
somehow

o_0 well.... this kind of changes are good news i think

Carl wants to have 1'000s of gadgets next year and he needs people 
to write them

Konfab is one area that Rebol is well suited to 'replace' or at least 
showcase as an alternative technology platform

I've left my old job today and I'm looking for new one :)

did he say what kind of gadgets?

gui means some extended framework ?

yeksoon: right again

Ladislav - yes, what do you mean by those gadgets? :-)

easy custom control, data gid for example, and some native r/view 
gadgets ?

This discussion really begs the question about what makes a language 
popular?

yes i agree

or Is he talking about gadgets using LNS ?

i guess rss-readers on stereoids?

He is answering questions now, so I will start asking in a sec.  
Starting with "When?"
