Hi Mauro, MF Though none has shown any interest in the project 8). Yeah, that happens sometimes. We all get busy with other things. MF So, where do you think is the best place to upload/publish the unifinished MF code? REBOL.org is a great place to put it, even if it's unfinished. Just make

Hi Brett, Yes documentation is a weakness - especially for ports. Async, is somewhat special because I don't believe RT has finished that area of work. Some members of the community have jumped into fill some of the gaps which is good but confuses this area a bit - esp. for me. :-) I do not

You see, Rebol has nothing natively that can provide access to any DB or XML, so it seems to be quite a self contained/isolated world. People have somewhat resolved this problems, but I see that using complex 3rd part scripts to access a DB is somewhat a drawback with respect

Hi, some text might be a little hard to follow, I wrote this over the course of several hours.. poking at it here and there... ;-) Yeah, it's a subtle thing, but I would like to see native optimized functions to access DB and do XML parsing/building. 3rd party libraries, how good

[small rant] I am not a Rebol genius, though I have been using it (discontinued) for some time now. There are still many things I have problems to understand, mainly due to its compactness in the syntax, which I though it was a thing the language wanted to avoid. See those neat examples in
