I'm not sure how that blocks the community. Did curecode stop working?

I agree with Graham - in fact it is highly demotivating and frustrating 
situation. Some points of my analysis are ignored, and exactly predictable. 
When website redo and 2.x upgrade was announced, I knew exactly what 
happens and what it means for R3. Not a one week halt, but it is 
stalled for more than one month already.
Why do we always stop at 95% of the subsystem completness?
Graham

Normally things stop at 90-95% because they're too difficult

Sorry, I'm playing devil's advocate here. But, really, there is still 
a ton of things to do that doesn't involve Carl. The function reference 
manual is only 30% done and that took me a week to do. So why don't 
a couple of people here continue the work? I won't have time for 
the next few months. Carl has asked for this several times, and this 
is something that really needs to be done.

Henrik ... do we even have a license?
Henrik

To what?

Henrik - maybe ppl too want to choose, what they work on? :-) E.g. 
Graham started the work on Schemes. He really SHOULD (and was supposed 
to be) supported. Nothin happened. Robert throwed some Extension 
related questions to R3 Chat - no answers too ...
Graham

A number of us said that R3 chat was a waste of resources ... and 
... now, barely anyone uses it.
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[192]
So people can choose what to work on and Carl can't?
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[193x2]
Carl can do what he wants .. and that's the problem
His choices are illogical
Henrik

Pekr, Graham knows more about schemes and protocols now than he did 
before. I'd say there is a win there.
Graham, so should we shut down the open R3 chat, which you and I 
can fix bugs in and use the AltME that people don't like because 
it's closed source?
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[197x3]
There's no win if I can't use it for anything ...
Might as well shut down R3 chat as Carl isn't using it .. and that 
was supposed to be his communication channel
Questions go unanswered ...

Well, you have the knowledge now.
Who says that Carl isn't using it? I see some private messages trickling 
in once in a while. And Graham, you didn't respond to my question 
that I posted there 3 hours ago to help resolve the document editing 
situation on rebol.com.
Pekr

Henrik - what are you talking about? Graham asked for assistance, 
schemes were supposed to be "revised" to see, if we use correct aproach 
in order for Carl to be acceptable ... it was promissed ... but did 
not happened ...
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[203]
Pekr, then Graham should ask him again.
Pekr
26-Jan-2010
[204]
Henrik:  WHERE? :-)
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[205]
R3 chat...
Pekr
26-Jan-2010
[206]
ok, Graham, please do so :-)
Graham

I didn't see any questions ...
I have no special rights ...
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[209]
you don't need special rights to read message #6739.
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[210]
How was I supposed to know that your message was in response to my 
statement from 2 weeks ago???
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[211]
Type "6739", press Enter, press J and the previous author is Graham.
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[212]
Wouldn't it be simpler if you put my name in the sentence so that 
I know you are talking to me?
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[213]
I can do that next time.
Graham

Anyway I was able to edit this page http://www.rebol.com/r3/docs/functions/read.html

because my r3 chat rating was 50
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[215]
That's a manual page, so that looks OK. Can you edit a page like 
this one:

http://www.rebol.com/rebol3/
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[216]
To edit a page, you need a "edit" menu on the page
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[217]
try clicking the red box on the upper right corner
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[218]
Yes ...
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[219]
ok? I get: "Restricted action. You have attempted to access a section 
of this website that requires administrative access."
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[220]
on what page?
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[221x2]
on that page I linked to above.
when clicking the red box in the upper right corner
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[223x2]
Oh ... is that what you meant by red box
http://www.rebol.com/r3/docs/functions/read.html

see the word "edit" top right ... I think that's the only time you 
can edit a page
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[225]
I think the point is that we should be able to edit those pages too, 
but it seems not to be the case right now.
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[226]
And the point is we are blocked while Carl goes incommunicado ago 
...
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[227x2]
we're not blocked in the manual
also I can see three more items checked on the priorities page from 
the last time I checked it a few hours ago, so docs conversion is 
progressing.
Graham
26-Jan-2010
[229x2]
create the code - test it - write the final docs
why do you want to start at the end?
Henrik
26-Jan-2010
[231]
Perhaps it makes better sense for Carl to do this now to test specific 
areas of R3. During this, Carl has also posted curecode reports.
