Just read through Nick's "Business Programming" piece.  Outstanding 
work!  Clear and complete.
I have only two thoughts that might be helpful:


The initial case for REBOL as a non-programmers development tool 
could use some visuals and diagrams.  


This initial message is perhaps the most important part of the piece 
in my view and might be developed into a standalone article to be 
spread around.
I can already think of at least three people who need to read the 
introduction.

And it still relies on R2 combined with VID. That is logical though 
R3 and Red are the new preferred platforms for future development?
(Oh great work anyway!)

Thanks Sqlab, that really helps. I've added it to download.r

I don't think the first part (Case for non-developers learning to 
program) relies on either version of REBOL.

That article is still a work in progress.  Glad to see some approval 
:)
I think it would fit nicely into a university curriculum somewhere.
And, I am TERRIBLE  with visuals.
R3 needs more established tools to make the same case

MaxV, I'd be good with using http://rebol.informe.com/portal.html
as a community portal.
sqlab

Portal or page is not found
although http://rebol.informe.com/dies exist

That's funny...I was just there.
It's still working for me.

Not for, me neither with Firefox nor Chrome

me neither -- I'm seeing the Portal does not exist page; and a slightly 
odd message that it may take time for DNS changes to propagate.
Kaj

That must be it, then: DNS for the apparently new subdomain rebol.informe.com 
still propagating
MaxV

Ok, so wait a day and see if you like it
Sunanda

[1279]
Okay.....I can see it now; so maybe it was a DNS thing.

@NickA-Let me think about some visuals.  Don't have much time, but 
I think this is important.

Thanks Scot - I'm putting together a presentation to introduce this 
text, so that would be really helpful!
Scot

Developed some visuals.
Published to Files / Docs / Images
EPS and PNG format for whatever you need.
They are very rough.  Feel free to redo or edit.
EPS didn't export properly...how can they be removed from the server?
Kaj
22-Jan-2013
[1286]
You can only overwrite them
Arnold

no rebol.informe.com/portal here either.

Great job, Kaj, on the GTK+ bindings!

Is it possible to provide an overview of all the Red information 
on the various links on http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/?
(do not follow this link it will only show you "Not Found")
Are all the links independent Fossil files?
Kaj
23-Jan-2013
[1290x5]
Yes, all independent Fossil repositories
The listing on the Red site is incomplete:
http://www.red-lang.org/p/contributions_20.html
The new download.r script in the test repository is meant to provide 
a complete listing:
http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-test/dir?ci=tip

Most of the older sites seem to be not actively maintained ... it's 
a huge task to keep things ticking over for 15 years or whatever.
Reboler.com seems good .. easier to type than the other.

Yes, look here http://rebol.informe.com/portal.htmland here  http://rebol2.blogspot.com

Yes, now I started to setting all, but now it should works well. 
Let me know, my email is: [maxint-:-tiscali-:-it]

MaxV: In http://www.maxvessi.net/rebsite/wr/the "Rebol3 Source" 
link give a 404 on Github.
r3-source
 must be "r3" only at the end.
Aand "Rebol.Wik.Is" does not seem to be what we expect it to be!
MaxV
24-Jan-2013
[1306]
Ok, corrected

On Rebol.net I read about http://www.rebol.net/wiki:  REBOL DocBase 
(old Wiki), so people are discouraged to use it.
