Could add/replace some of that with "cross-platform, CGI, console 
and simple GUI dialect etc.."
What do you mean, Ammon ?

on rebol description.


perhaps what can be done is to have a 20 words version (20wv) and 
a 50 words version (50wv) that can be used consistently.


20wv can be used as it is at the top of each page with the 50wv shown 
in 'About' or 'New to Rebol'.


The key idea is to allow developers to levarage on what is available 
and use it to help them 'sell' to others (IT mgnt etc)... apart from 
giving them the brief intro.

perhaps efishant can sponsor another competition .. to describe Rebol 
in under 20 and 50 words.  Winner gets a copy of  Visual Studio .Net 
BASIC.

Thank guys

Ammon -- control panel  --- can you do a mockup to show what you 
are thinking?

Banner text -- this is a good place for that dicsussion.....REBOL.org 
could publish the winners and use one/some of them to replace the 
existing banner tex.

I've just oploaded my first 2 scripts to the library. rebxml2xml.r 
and xml2rebxml.r
I hope, I've done it correctly.

Looks good to me, thanks.

Though one oddity -- unlikely not your problem....They don't display 
in colour:

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?color=yes&script=xml2rebxml.r

....Must be crashing Carl's color-code.r that we use to do the coloring, 
so we fall back to b&w. I'll take a closer look in a day ot two.

How about we have a no-cache directive to stop ISPs caching the scripts 
for the download page - so we are sure to get the latest one?
- the other way to do it, is to stick in a dummy cgi-bin in the path 
.. which also tells the cache not to cache it

Problem is that the download page *is* a static URL if you go to 
it directly, eg,
    http://www.rebol.org/library/scripts-download/menu-system.r

But of you click the "download script" link while viewing a script, 
you do go via a dynamic URL -- it creates the static one for you 
and then redirects, eg

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/download-a-script.r?script-name=menu-system.r


{What we should do is update the static file whenever a script is 
added or updated. That would fix most instances of this....I'll put 
that on the list, thanks]

Now that 1.3 is out, perhaps all of us who have scripts in the library 
should take the time to check them for compatibility, and update 
them if required.

I'm chasing some old scripts from Frank Sievertsen, does anyone have 
the following

[lego.r  math-do.r irc-protocol.r reblog.r] all described here http://www.codeconscious.com/rebol/dialects.html
Also chasing svm.r Simple Virtual Machine which was related to the 
KOSH project

OK. Shall we rebuild his reb and host it somewhere again. I'm will 
to put this all in an fx5 dir on rebolforces. (until Frank surfaces 
again)

Anyone see his dbridge.r and dbridge.java ?
This appears to be the fx5 home page .. but all the links for the 
plugins are broken.

does anyone know of any site indexer or search engine script written 
in rebol or available in rebol.org?
Sunanda

REBOL.org uses an indexer i wrote for another application and adapted 
to the Library. Let me know what you need an indexer for, and I could 
comment on its suitability.

Hallvard must have an indexer too to run Rix: http://www.oops-as.no/rix

Just trimmed about 100 people from the Library membership list....
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/cpt-view-users.r


A lot of them were drive-by signups by spammers to get their URL 
a link ("Hi I'm Mandy, click my link for photos") And most of *those* 
must have an IQ hovering aound their waist size because they'd failed 
to click the profile option to make their URL visible to other Library 
members.


So the membership list (claiming 200+ members) is more relevant than 
it was before.


But the automated expiry script may have caught some genuine members. 
If your userid has gone and you want it back, please drop me a private 
message.

If I have a script that is based on some source code from within 
rebol (say, on the desktop code), what's the appropriate license, 
when uploading to rebol.org?

Well, the library header 'license seems to only accept one of: bsd 
cc-by cc-by-sa gpl lgpl mit pd public-domain rvd 

And it is needed, but noneof these seems to be acceptable ... I guess 
...
It seems you got the source code .... from, no, I just remember, 
it had once been released, right? But I just extracted the
code from a running rebol. I guess this header seems to be right.

When we added validation for the license field, we limited it to 
licenses that had actually been used by people contributing scripts:
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/license-help.r


I reckon there are way too many license variants already in the world 
-- it's the bane of the open source movement. (We had a list of over 
40 licenses that people in theory said they'd like to use when contributing 
scripts)

But,. as the note on the page says:

f you'd like to use a license for a contributed script, and you can't 
see it listed above, please send us Feedback.
Ingo
14-Aug-2005
[89]
OK, Feedback .... but I dunno what license I'd like to use ... what 
would you call it?
Graham
14-Aug-2005
[90x3]
LPL ?
And note that if you extract the code from a running rebol, you won't 
get the license.  I got the above from the new SDK.
So, that message needs to be included with your script.
Wasn't Carl thinking about a new license at one stage ?
Ingo

I seem to remember something like that ... but then ... I do remember 
lots of things said ...
Whatever this meens ;-)
Graham

Now the desktop source has a different license from the rest of rebol 
code.
Hmm.  Perhaps not.
Looks like the sdk has all changed to the above license.
Ingo
14-Aug-2005
[98x2]
means, of course
I'm not sure, is the license stated anywhere? I mean, for code extracted 
from the running executable ...
