World: r4wp

Thanks for the additions, Andreas. It was my intent to have this 
in Markdown or something like it to have it be easily posted to any 
web site that could accept such content.

OK

obtain a better breakdown of posts by user

 - I do not criticize your findings, I do not even think it is needed 
 to know how many contributors there are; that was rather an observation 
 from me related to one "prolific" contributor

well, I actually think that this breakdown is useful myself because 
it's true that some people are just so much more 'prolific' than 
others

Thanks for reviving this Adrian.

I'm okay.  This summary though looks like it would be tedious to 
do.  Can it be scripted?

Group is now web public.

Andreas, your R3 binaries page looks really nice.  Might be worth 
putting up a link to the Android binary even though it's not built 
(yet) by your build farm just to have everything available in one 
place. I'm assuming Saphirion wouldn't mind if the right attribution 
is made.

Would it be worth putting what compiler switches were used for the 
builds? Do you think you'll want to provide debug builds at any point?

wrong group... ugh.

well, maybe not - you are providing pre-built binaries for the community!

Not sure where to post this.  Links on the R2 Desktop are broken, 
notably rebolforces.  Anybody have news of this?

Example:
http://www.rebolforces.com/reb/13/game-index.r

There are many broken link on R2/Desktop for long time, unfortunately.

how the hell do we ask to be member of a bord in trello?  there is 
absolutely no menu anywhere to join or ask for membership..


if there is one its very well hidden... so I guess this is an official 
request to be part of the trello board

my user is moliad, on trello.

There's no functionality to request membership, as far as I know.

In any case, I added you.

thanks... its weird that there is no way to ask for board membership.

seems to defeat the purpose of social coding practices  :-)

Trello still has bugs

Yes can't connect to it at work, because it demands IE9 or higher 
or safari or chrome or firefox. None of those are any option. Sometimes 
I seriously doubt if all of these demands to the users system are 
really necessary.

Well, if you want to use 'web app'  which tries a bit to not  resemble 
just "HTML page" you have to always use the most updated browsers. 
I think this rule will hold for very long time :-)

You can use your Android, or better still, your IOS device to view 
Trello

For the moment at least we're pretty happy with it as a "collaboration" 
tool

Arnold, you do know about the Red trello board??

Yes, got a message there saying my browser was not supported and 
I should upgrade my bosses computer.

Same reason I do not develop for Red, because Github does not support 
Snow Leopard any more, and my Mac cannot go further and I do not 
buy a new mac for  github. And the command line I consider too much 
trouble to learn.

What does snow leopard have to do with github?

You can use GUI tools ... such as Git GUI

Github has a program for Mac for Lion and up

Github p*ssed me off, for when I was on Leopard, there was a program 
for Snow Leopard and I did upgrade then and then demands had been 
pushed up.

So, what is this then?  http://gitx.frim.nl/

Did not know that program, I will give it a try soon. Thank you for 
the link Graham!

google is your friend

and enemy

I switched to use
https://ixquick.com/
for many searches, after Google was changed some time ago.

ixquick knows already what language I speak. Privacy friendly? ;)

I don't know. :) I also use
https://duckduckgo.com/
from time to time. I think, that's privacy friendly.

downloaded GitX, it works, only a menu atm. have to run now.. cu!

Carl couldn't get into Trello, either

Carl tends to run old systems

So do non-geeks

Some people holds to the saying "if it works for you well, dont try 
to fix it"...I belong to them and don't update apps just because 
'update is available'. I got bitten by updating to 'newer and better' 
version many times.

I think, I'm two OS versions behind on my iPhone, and it says, it 
has 26 app updates for me.

I'm one OS X version behind on my MacBook and found out the other 
day, my Xcode is 'old' too. So what? It works.

I haven't updated my Windows and Linux 'machines' in VirtualBox for 
years.


I just can't waste my time on all this updating to "now even more, 
newer, better". It's rubbish! :)

yup ;)

Now go update World! ;P

I tried installing a mail program on my Linode, but the repositories 
for the debian I use are now gone. I'll have to perform a complicated 
day-long upgrade procedure to move to a newer Debian. So, you can 
neglect upgrading to a degree that going forward will be much more 
complicated than simply doing incremental upgrades.

that is an issue with old versions of linux :(

Writing the NLPP program, one of the very biggest challenges was 
to make a no-hassle upgrade procedure. This was one of the hardest 
things to do and also one of the parts that took up most time to 
code and test.
