[REBOL] Re: Incomplete Documentation was: [RE: Re: nntp question]

From: petr::krenzelok::trz::cz at: 31-Aug-2001 22:05

Hi, it is even worse than you might think :-) Here is something which remainds me of bad ms practices, forcing ppl to something they don't want to do. Go to rebol.org site and try mail list archive. You will see following info: To view the userlist archive here at REBOL.org, follow these simple steps: Download REBOL/View from http://www.rebol.com/ Get it in the developer section, it's FREE and available for more than 20 platforms. Install it... it's not that hard, really. Run it and click on REBOL.com, then Sites, then REBOL.org You're now on the REBOL.org REBsite so select the List Archive and enjoy. So one would expect some Rebol script interface. BUT - the only one icon there is redirection back to rebol.org site: http://www.rebol.org/userlist/html/index.html- so the only one intention is to force ppl to download rebol/View - completly stupid and nonprofessional. Someone responsible should remove it! I will not better mention bug in /Command fastCGI doc which makes one and only example unoperable. I even haven't received comment from feedback. The one and only full time feedback person - Bo - is not with RT anymore too. Although it is internal thing of RT, it should be probably adressed. The more ppl downloads rebol, the situation will be only worse without proper support. Core pdf is fine, but lacking behind too - e.g. it uses /nowait refinement, while it is /no-wait for quite some time already ... So, so far - the best docs for rebol is - ppl on this ml :-) -pekr-
