[REBOL] Re: Encap/Distributions

From: jasonic:nomadics at: 22-Oct-2001 8:41

It is not obvious -> You have to first go through the HTML forms for downloading .. after entering name, email etc, yuo get to a page with links to the donwload installation exectables, where it indicates the various OS choices. In fact you don't have to go through the form, just hit the link directly for the info: http://www.rebol.com/view-platforms.html The rebol.com site really could/should be improved in lots of ways. I imagine it is lack of resources.. compounded by some lack of self-awareness/feedback too. But oh what a shame :-( This is one more example of essential info which should be well maintained and visible upfront. After all, crossplatform capability is one of REBOL's key virtues. Why hide the specifics? my advice: RT Put clear links on the home page to an up-to-date product/OS chart. go to www.rebol.com What do you see/read? PressQuotes and promo-market-speak are fine..But PLEASE make it really easy for people to get to the exciting facts! -Jason
