[REBOL] Re: Parsing comment

From all of this, I think Tim Peters does make a valid
comment. Many newbies have joined the list and left,
unable to come to grips with Rebol.
I think part of the problem is due to the lack of
documented scripts. Sure there are plenty of scripts now
in the script library ( and I don't think they were that
many when Tim (wink) was on the list which I think was
over 2 years ago), but the scripts in general were not
written to educate, but to perform some function. And who
bothers to document their scripts with the intention that
someone will learn something from them??
In an ideal world, Rebol scripts will be self documenting,
but to the newbies ( and me ), this is not going to be the
case.
If the librarian project ever gets off the ground, perhaps
this aspect could be addressed. Scripts could be rated on
their instructive value. A way to vote perhaps?
