Rebol Institute of Technology

The RIT ( Rebol Institute of Technology ) was an online
teaching class initially proposed by Louis, and hosted on
Rebol world.
This has not eventuated in that format, and I have now
taken over the organization.
I have set up a wiki instead to collect and organise
contributions. I have already had material provided by
Andrew Martin, and Gabriele S. More contributions have
been promised by other Rebol luminaries ...
If the RIT can get a contribution from every participant
in this mailing list, that will make 900 or more pages of
rebol instructional material that would otherwise not
exist.
Those of us who have created websites know how hard it is
to keep adding material .. after the initial enthusiasm,
our websites sit in cyberspace as a monument to our past
lives and desires.
A wiki however, can be a living thing that grows with
community participation, and can be an incomparable
resource.
All that I ask of you is that you take a few mins of your
time to prepare a page or two of instructional material
and enter it into the wiki. It does not have to be as
polished as a submission to the rebzine ( RIP ) because
the nature of a wiki is to allow endless revisions ...
even by others.
I don't mind if you're a guru or a beginner .. RIT needs
you both. And if u wish to write in French, Czech, Latin
or other popular language .. go for it. Someone else will
eventually translate it for you.
Thanks for your contributions in advance to the Rebol
cause. Live long and prosper.
