Are the videos with sound being uploaded to youtube or similar service?
Just my luck to be 12 hours out of sync with the rest of the world!

different continent?

 ?

if RED is becoming serious attempt at REBOL similar languages/clones, 
then we need new group.

Hi guys, I've spent a great time at the conference (and after also) 
with the people present. A big thank to Bas and Kaj for organizing 
this event, it was really nice meeting you all (pity that Robert 
couldn't been there to present RMA's GUI). The Boron's OpenGL demo 
was impressive (Star Trek's Enterprise ship), I'm looking forward 
to see the dialect used for that.


 I'm currently preparing the slides I've presented to put them online. 
 Should be done in the next hour.

Hi Doc, it was great having you here at ReBorCon!
Are you allready in France again?

I'm somewhere in Belgium now.
Btw, I'm currently connecting from the train on the road back to 
Paris at 200km/h using the train's wireless network! (I guess it's 
using a satellite connection, because latency is high and upload 
speed very very low). Nice technological achievement anyway...if 
only the train could get to destination without being, on average 
20mn late, that would be even greater! ;-)
Cheyenne presentation slides are available here: http://cheyenne-server.org/blog.rsp?view=25

There aren't much slides because the focus was on the coding demo.


Demo files won't be added until I get home, no way to maintain a 
SFTP connection long enough from here to upload them to Cheyenne 
site.

I see AltME is also working on high speed trains

Years ago I had a bog slow connection and AltME was the only communication 
system that kept working
I've added the slides to the Resources section of the site
I've been using Cheyenne for a few years now, but I learned several 
things from Nenad's presentation
