Chocolat is now Vanilla free!

Sabu Francis is renaming his Vanilla 0.6.3 release to Chocolat at the request of the original Vanilla authors. He will be setting up a website sometime when time permits to host the code.

HylaFAX web interface

Graham Chiu has released a light weight web interface to HylaFAX, the open source enterprise fax server software. It uses Cheyenne, and RSP pages. Internet Explorer users can view faxes in a REBOL plugin that allows them to rotate and ink on the fax. Chrome, and FF users will just see a PNG representation.

Cheyenne and mod-rest

Graham has been RESTing way too much of late and has persuaded dockimbel to help him create a mod-rest.r for Cheyenne! This is so that a REST interface can be coded to HylaFAX.

VIDinc

Well, we have no idea of what Carl is going to name his new baby. I favour god for graphical object dialect ... but I guess we don't want religion mixed with programming.

It is currently being alpha tested by Henrik and BH .. see this styles document. Henrik has posted lots of screenshots and a couple of movies.

REBOL not for me??

Carl has decided to refocus REBOL away from the ordinary programmer ... being dismayed at seeing so much REBOL code written in C or BASIC style. A few of us had a touch of self doubt reading this blog ... ahhh, who cares, as long as we enjoy what we are doing.
