Maybe my view on tutorials and documentation is a little bit different.

I like Rebol's help, source and what and mostly I am contented with the 
dictionary.
Mostly they offer what I am looking for in Core. Of course that's not 
enough with View.

I am shy with programs with more documentation  than code. If you ever 
had to work with a program with incorrect documentation , maybe you will 
understand that.
I believe that a good choice of names, a clear syntax, formatting and 
indentation is more essential than abundant comments. I use comments 
mostly if there are exceptions and/or something unexpected.

What annoys me about Rebol is, that there are some flaws or bugs, I can 
not correct, even if I think, that I know how to do it. In this case I 
hardly care, if the result would be incompatible with other OS's.
I am pretty sure, that more people would jump on the waggon, if the 
source of rebol would be available. If RT does not like the corrections  
and enhancements, they are in no way obliged to include it in the 
official releases. But I am sure, that bugs would be faster eliminated 
and the integration of wanted features would be sooner achieved.

I think it is more important to have the source available. Then we will 
have more adepts and probably we will get more documentation too.
