Henrik 7-Sep-2012 [381] | Congratulations in all directions :-) |
Marco 8-Sep-2012 [382] | 42 on friday. Nice gift indeed! |
james_nak 9-Sep-2012 [383] | RE: Carl's announcement. Pretty Cool. I know that's what everyone expected but it was nice to see it in writing nonetheless. "I'll be working on it soon, so stay tuned. " |
Steeve 9-Sep-2012 [384] | But the way he said it... |
james_nak 9-Sep-2012 [385] | I know, we didn't follow the directions carefully... Too much bloat. :-) |
Gregg 9-Sep-2012 [386] | Ah, Kaj may be on to something with his Troll comment. :-( Sorry for any false hope. |
james_nak 9-Sep-2012 [387] | Oh, that's true. Well, we'll see. |
Gregg 9-Sep-2012 [388x2] | Looking at other blog post comments, Carl's should appear with a different background color. It's been so long since he commented, that I didn't think about that. |
And it tells you how desperate I am for an answer from him. :-) | |
Steeve 9-Sep-2012 [390] | We all feel the same. That's why we can't clearly see the troll (still some hope in our poor heart) |
Kaj 9-Sep-2012 [391] | Gregg, I was wondering if the troll did your response, as well :-) |
james_nak 9-Sep-2012 [392x2] | No, mine legit. What a world we live in. |
=is legit | |
Steeve 9-Sep-2012 [394x2] | Kaj was asking Gregg. Are you Gregg as well James ? (/me confused beyond help) |
I see trolls everywhere now :-) | |
james_nak 9-Sep-2012 [396] | No, I am james and I didn't read kaj's question enough but I have an excuse... I am in the middle of a rebol application that is not going so smoothly. :-) |
Kaj 9-Sep-2012 [397x2] | Well, once after already having been in the first REBOL world for some time, someone asked if I was a bot... |
I'm probably the bot detecting bot | |
james_nak 9-Sep-2012 [399x2] | kajbot, eh? |
Well, "Kaj" is a one 'syllable' word :-) | |
Steeve 9-Sep-2012 [401x2] | Kaj means 'chicken" I don't see the connection with robot though ;-) |
Brian didn't see it | |
BrianH 9-Sep-2012 [403] | I noticed that it wasn't the same color, but guess I took your words for it. We'll find out soon enough. |
Kaj 9-Sep-2012 [404] | I thought chicken is kai |
Steeve 9-Sep-2012 [405] | Well, more I read it, more it becomes obvious. Last week, a few heffalumps burst into my basement and turned over the last barrel of 1999 Châtemateloo Using a microwave oven, amateur radio, and 4 lines of code in REBOL I was able to construct a modem and here I am. Pretty funny |
Kaj 9-Sep-2012 [406] | There's at least one such REBOL troll who writes well enough that it makes you doubt |
GrahamC 9-Sep-2012 [407x2] | heffalumps = fictional animal |
Pretty funny though | |
Robert 10-Sep-2012 [409x2] | Well, now on to creating a new "save-the-world-open-source-license". Why is it so hard to just pick one like MIT and release the code. Every day we loose, we can't get back. I expect this licensing thing to take at least 12 months. It's just waste of time. |
And even if it's a troll, Carl should just pick MIT :-) | |
Henrik 10-Sep-2012 [411] | Max, it's unfortunately fake. Sorry. |
MaxV 10-Sep-2012 [412] | Well... I don't know... if you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth. So just repeat this announce, it'll became true! |
Gabriele 10-Sep-2012 [413x5] | When I saw Max's post here, I went to check the blog because I thought it was a joke from Max. :-) |
But, apparently it's a joke from someone else. | |
I find it funny that you guys fell for it, it was clearly not Carl's style of writing. Besides, he already has his own open source license. :) (When I was in Ukiah, we went to lunch with his - at the time - lawyer, who created his own license... I can't find it on Wikipedia right now, but it used to be there.) | |
ok, i think it was Lawrence Rosen and the license was the Open Software License. | |
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Software_License | |
BrianH 10-Sep-2012 [418] | I'm more concerned about the license. His last attempt at an open source R3 license wasn't - it had usage restrictions that violated the definition. That's why all of my mezzanine work was MIT licensed, even the stuff that Carl included in R2 and R3. |
DocKimbel 10-Sep-2012 [419] | So, just the mezz code recently added or all R2/R3 mezz code is MIT? |
Andreas 10-Sep-2012 [420] | Heh, so the person impersonating Carl on his blog is now also trying to fake the yellow background? Quite insistent, that one :) |
Kaj 10-Sep-2012 [421x2] | Ah, I was wondering, because it's not completely filled out, but he got me this time |
I can't find anything on Github | |
BrianH 10-Sep-2012 [423] | Doc, maybe half of R3's mezz code is MIT (since I wrote it). All R2 mezz changes since 2.7.5 are MIT too since they're licensed from R2/Forward. |
Henrik 10-Sep-2012 [424] | The HTML is screwed up in the comments section now. |
Kaj 10-Sep-2012 [425] | Sorry, just tried to make a point :-) |
Arnold 10-Sep-2012 [426] | You replied the same second Kaj Luke! |
Kaj 10-Sep-2012 [427] | No, that's another way to prove the point. You can just edit the time of your message. Do you want me to answer before the previous post? :-) |
Arnold 10-Sep-2012 [428] | Maybe you can get the columns the same height again? No I just wrote it to point this out in case someone doesn't notice. |
Kaj 10-Sep-2012 [429] | No, I can't edit previous messages. Maybe the troll can |
Arnold 10-Sep-2012 [430] | I was doubting my previous postings ;) |
