There you go - cheap at half the price - http://www.very.co.uk/swan-sr9051r-60cm-fridge-freezer---red/1119903640.prd

That's a pretty small fridge compared to what we are using.

It's a [Red]uced fridge

Bo: In Europe there are "Fridge" (like the Red one above) and "American 
fridge" like

Moving to ~Chit Chat.
Thanks, Robert and Saphirion team!

Robert, it would be useful if everyone on your team adopted the same 
mdp style and template
I was parsing your mdp docs to convert to epub and found some have 
authors or not, dates or not, tables were done differently etc
Robert, you've uploaded the reactors documentation ... but I was 
under the impression reactors have been removed!
So, shouldn't we just delete that reactor stuff?
Robert

[1992x2]
MDP style: Well, we need a pretty printer ;-)
Reactors: I just packed everything on the docs dir we have as a start. 
So, yes, we need to sort it out, get rid of the old stuff etc. So 
feel free to delete it and send a pull-request.
GrahamC

And is there any point in uploading the html docs?  Since they have 
to be generated
Robert
24-May-2013
[1995]
No, as said I just used the docs dir and didn't went through it. 
Well, seems next time we prepare it a bit better.
GrahamC
24-May-2013
[1996x2]
Ok, I'll figure out how to send a pull request on these
As long as other people agree .. it would be painful for you to have 
to update the html docs each time the mdp ones are changed
Robert

This coult be done with a commit hook on our side, but yes, HTML 
is not needed.
GrahamC

Looks like a number of other docs are not there.
validation-proposal, dialog-system, gob-capture, save-state etc
or I just missed seeing where they are :(

Thanks for noting the blog update Petr. Nice to hear he's enjoying 
himself so much. Maybe we'll get him back into REBOL when he sees 
that he can build Roku stuff in Red.
Pekr

Well, I wish him well too. OTOH he contradicts himself. He says, 
he is interested in Rebol, yet he is addicted in something completly 
else, not finding free time for rebolling. I hope you will meet him 
at Devcon, so that he gets excited about Rebol againt too :-)
Gregg

I don't think it's contradictory. He focuses deeply on one thing 
at a time, and everything else is lucky to get any time at all. It's 
just that now, Roku is his focus.
OTOH, his work there may lead to new thoughts for REBOL and other 
languages targeted at small devices in a networked world.

It's a bit odd that his creation is so fantastic that he can't use 
it
GrahamC

Perhaps it was never designed to be use in memory constrained embedded 
devices

I think that reason for not using R3 is not technology related. Carl 
even talked about it in the past, that - maybe one day. Imo the reason 
is two-three-fold - 1) RT's failure, to set up R3 in the wild, business 
wise 2) at the time Carl joined Roku, R3 was not open-sourced. 3) 
I also remember, that on R3 Chat, he asked about Gstreamer. So imo 
even a toolset problem - R3 lacking extensions to popular subsystems, 
and also risky situation - what if Carl would decide to leave the 
company? Who would work with his R3 code?
Kaj

Agreed

Seems like I missed the chance to join the chat with Carl and you 
guys on StackOverflow, but I was in my dreams (or nightmare about 
autorelease). ;)
GrahamC

Well, you need to be prepared and have sufficient reputation on SO. 
 It took Carl nearly 45 minutes before he was able to speak!
It was somewhat frustrating for all of us waiting.
Geomol

Any reason he doesn't wanna do such limited time chats here?
GrahamC
28-May-2013
[2017x2]
probably hasn't got altme installed
He said he would only use r3chat before .. but he says that the SO 
chat is very nice and usable from a browser
Geomol
28-May-2013
[2019x2]
Yeah, I just remembered, he said something about being able to chat 
from any computer.
How hard can it be to create a terminal version of AltME? Well...
GrahamC
28-May-2013
[2021]
that is R3 chat
Geomol
28-May-2013
[2022]
But is that usable with e.g. this world? If yes, then he could just 
use that and join a chat here, couldn't he?
GrahamC
28-May-2013
[2023x2]
not with this world
I think he's had world changing experience working at Roku :)
Geomol

So
How hard can it be to create a terminal version of AltME? Well...
GrahamC
28-May-2013
[2026]
An event driven terminal??
Geomol
28-May-2013
[2027x2]
No, an interface to this world, but from a text terminal. Like R3 
chat, but which actually work with AltME worlds.
If he did that, he could join this world from any computer.
GrahamC
28-May-2013
[2029]
perhaps he doesn't want to
Oldes

fine.. so after 45min of waiting, what he said instead of a note, 
that SO chat is nice?
