what exactly are you using cheyenne, qm and r/s for ?
Kaj

[3357x2]
Nothing, that's up to you :-)
I'm a platform provider

So, does this mean Orca has been abandoned?
And you're supplying REBOL instead?
Kaj
12-Sep-2008
[3361]
No, why? I'm supplying both
Graham
12-Sep-2008
[3362]
Just wondering since all of the above clearly needs REBOL
Kaj

[3363x2]
Actually, the system runs without REBOL, but it doesn't work without 
ORCA
I'm also starting to do more ORCA these days

I already commented on someone dissing your choice to use REBOL :)
Kaj

[3368x2]
Yeah, I saw that. :-) Thanks!
It's ORCA, though, not OSCAR

I'm terrible with names. That is probably why noone has modded my 
post up.

I asked a question about ORCA's status there, to keep the discussion 
public.
Kaj

[3372]
Ehm, I never bothered to register with OSNews when they closed up
Henrik

I tried, but I can't edit my comment. I sent feedback. I'm hoping 
to fix it before someone points out the error in a public forum.

One czech IT related portal reports, that Cisco buys Jabber, to enhance 
its IM product capabilities. I wonder who buys R3 plus rebservices 
:-)

If they make a PS3 version...
Graham

They said they have had it running on a PS3 .. so will you do the 
REBOL port ? ;)
Pekr
24-Sep-2008
[3381]
noone can do a REBOL port unless Carl releases host sources :-)

The fatal error in their aproach is, that they should have been moving 
to x86 in 2000 already. PPC might be fine, but it caused a damage 
...
Graham

lots of cheap PS3s
Pekr
24-Sep-2008
[3385]
yes, PS3 is different league than plain A1 (you can't buy new ones) 
or even SAM (600 or more EUR for sigle board? 400MHz? Othere expenses 
- hd, memory, power supply, case, OS)

I remember when they had Amiga on a PCI card ...
that's all we need :)

If they release a PS3 version, I buy one :-)

Does PS3 licence allows to run different OS?
Rebolek

[3390]
You can buy PS3 with pre-installed Linux so I think yes.
Geomol

Yes, there's even an "Install other OS" entry in the system menu 
on the PS3. That's how Linux is installed.

They may need a license from Sony to make a OS disc though. (ie. 
pay them)

one of the developers for OS 4.1 just got a PS3 so is in the process 
of port to the PS3

NO WAY! That would be so cool (#2 to Rebol running on the PS3, mind 
you).
Graham

Is OS4.1 runs on PS3, then REBOL will run ....
Alan

removed the license restriction this year from the SWF format. So 
anyone can go create anything they want around that format, including 
a player if they want to

... this is old news, no? Besides that it is half-full cup. SWF is 
freed, Flash is not ...
