Apollo 1.4.0 released: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/apollo.zip

A lot of new pictures have been released since the last version of 
my Apollo program 2 years ago. Unpack the zip archive and start apollo.r. 
The indexes for apollo 7-17 missions doing the years 1968-1972 will 
be created, the first time, the program is started. The GUI has been 
updated and new features include option to update the indexes at 
any time by the click of a button. The pictures are a collection 
of the pictures released on the website: http://www.apolloarchive.com/
Have fun!

Btw. the rebol-script loadthumbs.r included in the apollo.zip can 
be used to download all thumbnail pictures to be used in the program. 
Run it after the indexes have been created by apollo.r. By downloading 
all the thumbs, the apollo.r program will be faster when used. All 
the thumbs are almost 30MB!

Just announcing that I am alive and well and just flat out busy, 
which has reduced my chat time, but the good thing is I am doing 
more effective business development AND technical development in 
REBOL.  Didn't want anyone to think I was gone or hibernating.  Since 
I work in specific, proprietary vertical markets, my stuff generally 
goes where the sun don't shine...;-)

...but thanks to those who ask me if I am OK...just spending more 
of my time with more e-Fish-Ant-Sea!

BTW, now eFishAntSea is a Registered Trademark...so I get to put 
the little r with a circle (now that could be OnT for Announce, eh?)

REBOL is a great technology.  eFishAntSea is the name for solutions 
which REBOL enables...that is how the words fit together in the crossword 
puzzle of branding... 0-o-o<

Hello, I would like to announce the availability of  Simetrics on 
rebol.org. This library implements a few effective and widely used 
metrics for measuring string similarity and for searching documents 
amongst a large collection of documents. A extensive documentation 
is also available on rebol.org and a discussion forum has been opened.

françois, why not a forum here on altme ?

Yes, why not, but i do not want to pollute with forums that would 
not concerned much people...

[Please respond to announcements in Ann-Reply]

Offline reader for Altme Chat Group : http://membres.lycos.fr/didec/rebol/altme-chat-reader.r
As some seems to search for it.

It can be used to read an entire chat group or to export its content 
in html. There is a command line syntax for automatic export (ie. 
with batch/cron job).

We are planning an SDK 2.6.3 build (also View 1.3.3 Core 2.6.3)  
- If you have an important bug that you need fixed, please be sure 
to tell us about it.  Follow the note below:

1) be sure that the bug is listed in RAMBO and that you have a clear 
way to show how to make it happen.

2) if you have a solution, by all means, add it to your report (it 
is so much faster to fix those!)

3) contact Gabiele Santilli and tell him that you think it is a critical 
bug.  He will collect the bugs, and determine the initial priorities 
for implementation.

You can reach him at email on rebol.com if necessary. (I do not put 
his email address here to avoid spam harvesting).

We may also be bringing up a special feedback channel for this usage. 
If we do, I will note it here.

Is Rebol.dll being rebuilt as well?  Does the current rebol.dll have 
AGG?

New version of SQL-PROTOCOL is on www.rebol.org


This new version handle now standard SQL string for SELECT, INSERT, 
UPDATE and DELETE so you have a better compatibility with other database 
like MySQL, Oracle or ODCB protocol.

Martin Johannesson has updated his great HyperNotes. Some bugs were 
fixed. Get it here -- http://hem.bredband.net/martinjohannesson/hypernotes/

Re: Gabrielle's clip.r ..... if you select a clip follwed by a tab 
a blank console window pops up.

This isnt part of clip.r .... I think its a Rebol bug .... can anyone 
verify this ?

For anyone interested ... I have hacked an update to clip.r to the 
edit facility to allow removal of persistent clips that are no longer 
required.

do http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/irc-core-client_latest.r

excellent ....

Thanks for the comment in that script Oldes.  REBBOT was one of my 
first little networking projects - as the code should have proved 
:-)

may be a birthday present for me on May 2 ?

The Library Tag Team will be holding the second annual Library Tagging 
Conference in Birmingham, England in the third week in July. Book 
now to avoid dissapointment.

I am happy to announce that my wife deliver last night a beautiful 
baby boy "Tadeo Dimitrios", he wighted 10 lbs. 4 oz., and measuerd 
22 inches. Both the baby and the mother and perfect healthy condition. 
I will be posting pictures soon. :-)

congratulations!

Jaime that is wonderful!  hope to not see you as much as you take 
care of them both

Congratiolations, have a sigar ! ;-)

I just added the script number 711 to the library. Which, incidentally, 
also is my birthday.

Oh, by the way, it's called imapx-handler.r, and adds some handling 
of mail-folders and and the possibility to fetch only specific headers 
to the imap protocol.

And I'd call it pre alpha, though it works for me.

Ok, yesterday (28-Mar) I became father as well. Here are the current 
features of my daugther "Vanessa Marie":
- weight 2980g
- measures 49cm

mom and she are in perfect condition. I will setup a web-page soon.

Jaime, so your son has the same birthday?

Congratulations Robert ...!

Wow!  upload a photo!

Sorry...on behalf of Sunanda: [Please respond to announcements in

Robert, My son birthday is March 29, he was born at 2:25am

Congratulations to you too on your daugther. ;-)

Here are some pictures of Tadeo and family http://tinyurl.com/e7w7o

I see you couldn't resist bringing your computer ;-)

crc-32.r script updated to work on big files:

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=crc32.r

One can either uses the /direct mode (crc-32/direct %file buffer-size) 
or 

the /continue refinement to calculate a checksum part by part (new-crc: 
crc-32/continue next-data old-crc)

- rebcode version for 1.3.61 included (as fast as the 'checksum native)

I am publicly announcing a new (working) project of mine.

REAVER -  Rebol Asset versioning. a versioning engine built over 
database.  but it does not version files. it versions data itself.

Sounds cool. What's the use case for it?

going to ann-reply ;-)
