World: r3wp

like Cheyenne ...

there's nothing compelling about forum software ...

The point is to get the release out now so *other* people can test 
it.

Then why did we have such a huge discussion about a good one?

we didn't ...

we had 4 suggestions... they're all pretty much the same

We did, in the R3 alpha world. I haven't even caught up with it

I was in that discussion ... so I know.  I suggest you read before 
commenting.

Indeed they're all the same in that they suck

No, Doc should write Cheyenne, that's what the release is for. I 
still don't get where you thought that Carl was going to delay the 
development release to write some forum software. The whole reason 
for the release is to get R3 out to the community, so that others 
can write this stuff.

So, what.

So, Brian what was this 5 points need to be settled before we release 
business?

Carl is just putting off the forum software until after the release, 
just like the DevBase rewrite.

Windows sucks .. many of us use it before there's nothing better.

The point has been settled - that doesn't mean that the software 
needs to be in place ahead of time.

The only software that needs to be in place is in place already.

So, we see a release today?

Go back to the alpha world and read. Remember that this is a US holiday 
weekend.

I have already had to skip a night of sleep because of the holiday 
overhead, and even then haven't had time to do any REBOL work. You 
are picking the wrong time of year to get impatient.

Take it easy, Brian, to fight another day :-)

Fortunately it wasn't last night :)

Carl is saying that he wants to write the BBS because the one we 
decided on ... phpBB or vB ... never appeared.

It never appeared because the server that was promised to me never 
appeared.

Nothing new ... just history recycling itself.

And Carl's arguments are flawed.

No matter ... R3 is irrelevant to what I do ... just trying to help 
move things along.

wow fight !!!

Just were are the non web public places for R3 discussions?  Are 
those only open to those in the R3 alpha group?

it seems

it's an another world in Altme

you must have the password and accept to be raped by the gurus

*smile* no fear here, they would find I'm old and thick skinned, 
a scary combination!

you could be disapointed, they are a little pervert

Just for the record, the Alpha group is noting but debate on the 
best way to do things....very focused, very dry.

On issues that need a group, those questions are posted around here 
anyway.

OK, I got a quick job: I need to make a one-month calendar in VID3.4 
complete with day names and dates. I just need the algorithm to generate 
the necessary VID block. It must be coded in R3.

The input is a specific date and the output is the month that date 
sits in. It's OK if we can get more features in, such as week numbers.

ive done a draw based one of  these for R2.. should be simple to 
modify it for R3

something like this Henrik? http://rebol.mustard.co.nz/cal_control.r

yes, a bit like that. I will need it to output a VID3.4 block or 
at least allow me to generate it easily from that function.

should be simple enough - there are only a few text changes in R3 
Draw/AGG

I do not want a DRAW block.

(just so that is clear)

ahh - so all panes to e GOB based?

Each valid date is going to be a real clickable button. It's all 
VID.

ok - then the init function would do the trick with the draw commands 
changed to poke data into button faces.

Hmm, yes, that might do.

unfortunately i cant do any testing as i dont have VID3.4 :)

that's OK, I'll adapt it. just put in some words that will allow 
me to tell the parts apart.

ill rewrite it as a standalone function that outputs a block with 
the values
