  1. Refresher: continuing construction of first draft release of source for R3 host (source, includes, makefiles, scripts, docs.)
  2. A95 released. This is the first alpha with compiler optimizations enabled, so watch for any odd problems. See change log for other items.
  3. Been a few weeks since last R3 release... time to resume the mix, even if small changes/bug-fixes at user level. Helps keep the momentum.
  4. Resuming work on R3 Host builds. This requires some testing, and will target MinGW C as the first test platform.
  5. Changing Delta-Time (a mezzanine) to use stats/timer for microsecond precision.
  6. Today, releasing A94 for OS X and Linux. BTW, it fixes the TCP listen bug for opening your own server ports.
  7. Taking a timeout from development to ponder marketing ideas and suggestions for REBOL. What's the best forum of discussion with low chaos?
  8. Wondering why if you type REBOL into twitter search, it doesn't show REBOL3 group. Bad search algorithm? Quite odd.
  9. R3 A93 released. Better support for stdio on all systems. CGI POST method should work now. Will provide an example on R3 blog.
  10. Improving standard I/O to allow R3 to be used with redirections, CGI and other purposes.
  11. Looking at updating the R3 Chat web page mirror... using R3 itself for the CGI part of it... as a test really.
  12. R3 A92 supports UTF-16 encoded Unicode in READ/string. Auto-detects byte order marker. Also UTF-8.
  13. R3 A91 released. Includes DO and ACCEPT in PARSE. Also adds complemented bitsets to support charset classes in PARSE and FIND.
  14. Documenting bitsets to allow complemented bitsets to be added (for FIND and PARSE.) Also, they are more efficient than in R2.
  15. R3 A90 for Linux, OS X, and FreeBSD updated. Oh, and WinXP too. Do some parsing. Try those new features. Sooner better than later.
  16. A90 released. Improves PARSE related to loops. Adds WHILE and REJECT keywords.
  17. Advanced users want PARSE to allow infinite loops. So ok, in A89 they are supported. Better check your rules block carefully now.
  18. www.rebol.net seems to be having problems. Have not yet been able to reach the folks who host it.
  19. R3 A87 released - fixes a variety of recently submitted bugs.
  20. R3 A86 released with PARSE changes and enhancements. Useful improvements, such as INTO of a string from a block.
