World: r3wp

no problem cyphre ;-)

just to explain: valid until means the bountie offer, not the
creation timeframe. it makes no sense to offer a bountie with
an unlimited timeframe to take.
of course the task can & should be made step by step without
any special due date.

so if someone is interested to do the job he should 'decide' until 
this date.

I am, actually, a DLL interface could find its way back into my schedule 
next week, and would once again benefit multiple clients of mine.


I`ve already got some work done and a compiling setup all ready for 
it.   


thing is, the next hostkit / extension could make a bit difference 
in how this is implemented, so I was waiting for the next release 
of R3 before starting this project again... it has been several months 
now since this was last released by Carl.

Just to clarify, TomBon, are you offering $350 for the DLL interface 
now?  Or, was the $350 figure you mention the $450 less the $100 
for the OSX interface?

I've updated the bounty to indicate the acceptance date http://rebol.wik.is/Bounties/R3_-_simplified_DLL_interface

my part here is $350 so you can see it as an official increase from 
the $200 I made in january. 

so if pekr, janko and will still offering their bountie the total 
would be $600.

but for fairness I think you should ask them if they are furthermore 
interested after such a long time.
for this reason I added the 'valid until' .

Ok, I'll update the bounty details.  Do you still have that restriction 
on nested structures?

Updated .. http://rebol.wik.is/Bounties/R3_-_simplified_DLL_interface

Pekr is still okay. Janko ?  Will ?

It seems that Ladislav is going to work on the Simplified DLL interface 
for R3
