not install dir, data dir

when he went to change from C:\ to d:\ and hit the "Change" button 
on the installer, we didn't catch that it had removed the "Rebol\View" 
portion and defaulted to the drive he launched the installer from.

so note that 1) it does not delete anything without asking confirmation 
and 2) only deletes the data dir which should be appdata\view\

So Rebol removes everything in installed folder?
Gabriele

no, it doesn't; it removes everything in the data dir but only if 
you confirm the deletion.

no, it only seemed to delete registry settings and the appdata/view 
folder.  Nothing from his program files folder was erased, which 
is a good thing for him.
So one thing I would like to suggest is that the "Change" button 
in the installer defaults to the folder as indicated in the default 
path provided when you start the installer.  I think this is the 
root of the problem as the text looked like it was fully provided 
but the path field was short and we didn't confirm the full path. 
 In my opinion it should have included \Rebol\View, but believe it 
did not.

Gabriele - but maybe it would be worth to publish some blog article, 
about the state of Rebol 3. I know that every single project is delayed, 
but it starts to look strange once again - alpha in may, beta in 
June. It is end of June, according to another blog Carl is supposed 
to spend several weeks in France at that time, and no mention of 
when aproximately alpha will be out?
and other thing - blog very often raises some questions, dunno if 
those are mainly rhetorical questions or so, but decision for particular 
areas are never announced.

What happened to SDK 2.6.3? It was announced on March, 2 by Carl. 
We were supposed to submit latest bugs to fix. So I wonder, if there 
are no bugs since 2.6.2, that 2.6.3 was not released? :-)

i guess it's just that Carl hasn't had the time. I did fix some mezz 
bugs for that release...
