I haven't used AsciiDoc, but it looks like it might be a nice standard 
to use, at a glance. I haven't looked at enough AsciiDoc source to 
say if I like the format though. It didn't grab me the first time 
I looked at it, but I'll look again. The header syntax puts me off 
a bit. http://powerman.name/doc/asciidocis a cheat sheet.

Pekr, Markdown _is_ what Github is using for .md files.

Arnold, if you underline headers with === oder --- in headers that's 
sufficient. No need to match the header. I don't like the hash syntax 
either, but when I hear talk about h6: "remember that Feynman covered 
all of physics [..] with only two levels of document hierarchy".

@Gregg, asciidoc uses a header *because* it's a document formatting 
tool.  There's a variety of styles supported .. and it's a pain to 
try and remember but I guess it gets easier with use.  The point 
for me is that it provides entry to docbook and then multiple other 
formats whereas makedoc/pro are stuck in a single page style html 
which is really past it for any serious documentation.

Sure you can roll your own, but if we want other people to learn 
it, you're running up hill all the time.

Pekr, I have several markdown docs now in the document repository, 
and they display quite nicely on github

For people in Windows Word World (I know I know ... double pane), 
MarkdownPad 2 was released on 05-Mar-2013 with standard and Pro version.

The pro version includes GFM support.  Pro costs $14.95 USD for a 
single user licence.

This is the kind of stuff that I use because time isn't free and 
Git seems to be the place to converge to.

Hmm.  I was asked to setup a brand new laptop with windows 8 today. 
 Cousin needs Office 360  so I click on the install which takes me 
to website.  I enroll him into windows live and start the installation. 
 Which then fails 5x .. brand new latop.  system restore and uninstall. 
 WTF!

I felt my BP rising steadily as I tried to negotiate Windows 8 using 
a mouse :(

being a vegetarian doesn't help, when using Win8, I see.

Maybe ASIMOVs Foundation is happening?

at least you didn`t have to try using it with a touch pad.  *That* 
is frightening.  :-)

Youtube channel: (RedREBOL was already taken anyone?) alternative 
could be theRedREBOL or theRedCoder or theREBOLCoder.

RedBol ?

Reducation Channel?

Gulag ?

@Arie, wrong group Announce. Bas already pointed this out. (Softwarefreedomday 
is his channel). I do not want to steal viewers from Bas' channel.

The point is I want to use this new channel as a dedicated channel 
for Red (and REBOL) specific video's. I imagine this being used by 
this community to post self-made tutorial video's on. The softwarefreedom 
channel is much broader than this. One does not exclude the other.

Why not use separate channels for Red, Red/System and Rebol respectively 
or conversely using a family name like "Rebol-like languages" or 
"Rebolish" or something similar ? Personally I prefer using separate 
names, even splitting furthermore amongst Rebol2 and Rebol3 ... but 
this is a suggestion only. In the end I also see some specific place 
for Boron, World, and Topaz but then everyone should point to the 
others or to a single "entry point portail" which points and summarizes 
the évolution and differences while it could alos only point to each 
of the specific related websites, as they appear  !!!

May be "Rebol inspired languages"  would be enough ...

We do have #notREBOL for general chat on REBOL alternatives.

@Gregg : I was thinking the group was in search for a new name on 
Youtube, not here, isn't it ?

Bas' existing playlist is a Red playlist. It's just one of the SoftwareFreedomDay 
account playlists

Robert it is a GREAT news! Thank you!

Gerard, maybe I'm confused. I just meant the group here.

Robert, that sounds great. Congratulations to you and the team.

Guess I'll have to consider an Android device at some point now. 
:-)

Robert: "The cool thing with this approach is one really don't need 
anything more than the Android encapper to produce the apk file. 
No need for android NDK, SDK or even JAVA to be installed ;-)"


Do I understand you reimplemented jarsigner, zipalign and the java 
XML binary compiler in Rebol?

The R3Demo1 apk works great on my Motorola running Android 4.1.  
The only minor complaint is that the text doesn't all fit inside 
the window (the "n" in "been").

Doc: basically yes. Currently only the zipalign is used in the encapppign 
process since it is small cli based exe but we might get rid of it 
eventually as well if there is any license collision (but I guess 
not)

Very Cool Robert!

Fantastic!  This gives R3 some basis for commercial use.

@Bo: yes, the text related issues are not yet solved in the current 
R3/R3GUI versions(which also the ecapper uses). But are next on my 
"Android todo list" so you can expect them to be fixed in upcoming 
release.

Good to see you got the redis:// working!

I hope so :) Now I'm going to use it in one web, so I can test it 
in real life.

Cool work Rebolek!

Thanks, Endo!

Awesome. And then some.

Can't wait to free some time and start working with this.

Thanks, Maarten!I hope it will be usable :)

nice work Rebolek.

R3GUI + async http...Nice demo Andreas!

If you don't mind I've added some more 'bells' to your script. Try 
this version: http://rebol.atwebpages.com/tests/r3gui-httpget.r3

To se that the asyncs works nicely, just hit the "download" button 
few more times ;)

Nice addition, Cyphre :)

Can any of this be posted on facebook?

Typo: "sice"

Great work Kaj!

Great work Kaj and Doc!

Thanks for the explanation Kaj, that is most helpful.

A year ago this was beyond expectations. Congratulations Kaj!!

Congrats to all parties! Kaj for the hard-work, and Bo for the courage 
to go with Red/System solution. I would like to know the motivation 
to use Red/System instead of e.g. R3 (my understanding is, that R3 
has 0MQ available too?)
