World: r3wp

And going to one computer would add complexity, since many people 
are doing stuff at different locations :(

I thought you were talking about your own collection?

Me, my family, my friends, interstate (not international at the moment 
but it could be). Most of the computers are pretty much the laptop-at-the-cafe 
situation, completely mobile.

Well, I did cut many of those out to simplify my life :-)

For the most part, no cooperation from the local network admin - 
free wifi, work networks, etc.

People are the most important part of my life (says the tech guy) 
:)

Right, so get rid of all those computers

The people use them :)

That's their problem. I bet they're also insisting on running Windows...

If they were, I could continue to use Hamachi. Now there are an increasing 
number of OSX users, and the occasional Linux, with some Android 
users too (I can ignore the iPhone for now).

Well, then you need a thoroughly cross-platform system - so I'm standardising 
on REBOL 3

Which is why I've started learning Android development :)

I've been meaning to write my own Groove since way back when, so 
I'm not messing with any others, any more :-)

I looked at Groove. It really is a different thing from this.

Sure, so I wonder if I need that other thing :-)

Rewrite IOS ...

Something in that direction, yes

I tried my cURL binding on Syllable Desktop and it just worked

As I suspected, I didn't even have to recompile the Linux binary, 
just as with the core REBOL 3 library

This past Saturday we held our Winter Syllable Conference:

http://web.syllable.org/2011/WinterSylCon/main.html

Most of the demos had REBOL in them

We introduced and handed out a sneak preview of our new Syllable 
Desktop live CD, introduced the REBOL 3 cURL binding and went through 
our planned demonstration of setting up a website provider on Syllable 
Server, running on Cheyenne, making a website on Desktop with my 
REBOL CMS, building it with REBOL 3 and uploading it to Server with 
the cURL binding, with a short demo of the graphical version of Syllable 
Server thrown in

nice!

live CD is very interesting.

I'm finishing it off for release in the coming weeks

Well, just finish, not finish off :-)

;-)

will the live CD run in VMWare, Parallels or VirtualBox?

All of them as far as we know, but we can't test them ourselves

VMware is usually best

Or QEmu

Works in VirtualBox

You mean the current live CD? That's the very old 0.6.4 one

ok :-) well, it worked.

Thanks for testing, but this one has no REBOL included yet

I hope to release the new one in a week or two

I'll be sure to try it on my laptop and give you feedback...  :-)

Cool

syllable cvs down?

ah yes. the aftermath of the attacks on sourceforge, it seems.

Yes, more SF suckage

We also have source packages of stable releases, though

The web viewer of SF CVS is back

This also makes the source of the R3 extensions available again

Pertaining to the previous discussion in "Red": If you do
readelf -h `which ls` | grep Type
on Syllable, what type do you get? EXEC, DYN, something else?

DYN

Cool, thanks.

I've written a build recipe for the Fossil version control system:
