That's a good question. I hope the issue is still
alive.

Oh the modesty! Ingo, your scripting ability is more
advanced than you admit. REBOL's complexity seems to
scale with your ability, so maybe you never quite feel
like a guru.
/// FAQ Writers, step forward by this Tuesday Oct 1
Thinking beyond the library, I propose to lead an
effort to create a much richer FAQ for REBOL. I admire
the Javascript FAQ at www.IRT.org (
http://developer.irt.org/script/script.htm ) and I
think REBOL could benefit from a similar resource.
In this vein, I've amassed roughly 1000 questions from
messages on this list and other language FAQs. Most of
the questions are newbie-level and have a
web/HTML/Javascript perspective. They require clear,
well thought-out answers.
I've been disgracefully remiss about getting a posse
together to tackle this. But shame has no value if it
doesn't beget action.
Any REBOLs with a flair for writing/editing
documentation who would like to contribute time and
expertise, please contact me directly no later than
Tuesday, October 1. There is also a trusty-REBOLer
with a hankering to write FAQ-builder script (output
similar to IRT FAQ I mentioned).
Gotta move fast, time is the enemy. Serious offers
only. I will send out a reminder this Monday and start
parcelling out work immediately. There will be a
schedule, deadlines and a launch date, so no
lollygagging!
Pretty simple stuff, but long overdue.
Regards,
Ed
