Sorry if it sounded that way Brett, I didn't mean to imply anything of that
sort. I was trying to clarify a few things before we (as in members of this
list) got inundated with requests, from new REBOLs who've joined this
ally-list. I think most people on the ally list are contributors and members
of the REBOL community such as yourself, the ally-list itself is a "clique".
The point Paul makes about scripts breaking through changes and wishing to
learn the core better, rather than the shifting sands is also a good point,
and the fact that the submission script isn't working, does help answer my
question as to why there are so few contributions. Most mail on the list
lately has been to ask why it is so quite. Now I have some answers why.
An understanding of View and Core is important to write apps for Link.
I was hoping to encourage more activity in View scripting before/if Link is
opened up, like the View beta was. Now is a good time to learn View, maybe
it would help if I should offer a cash prize?
Cheers,
