[create Maoww] ist ein in REBOL geschriebener Jabber-Client. Bei mir beendet er sich zwar nach wenigen Sekunden mit der schönen Nachricht "Une erreur s'est produite, 502 unable to resolve hostname" (das aber, nachdem der Roster schon übertragen worden ist), dem sonstigen (REBOL-L'schen) Vernehmen nach soll er aber ausnehmend gut gelungen sein. On va voir.

er ist tatsaechlich (ueberraschend) gut - vor allem eine hervorragende basis um einen jabber client zu basteln, der den eigenen wuenschen entspricht.

This isn't relevant to any of Chris' current remarks, but since the readers here are knowledgable, I have a hope someone can point me in the right direction. Does anyone know a web source for a bio/CV of `Doc' Searls? I'm working on a piece about Jim Billington (The Librarian of Congress) and Searls, and I find Doc has spilled a lot of (largely self-congratulatory) ink on himself, but I haven't been able to find anything about his educational background. I did find one wonderful quote, however. In January 2000, when asked `What won't happen in the Internet Economy in 2000?" the Doc, with incredible prescience said "The bubble won't burst." Well, he was right for at least a week or two...

doc searls: "My own IQ scores have ranged over 80 points. My SAT's were worse than George W. Bush's. When I was in Junior High School, my grades and scores were so poor that I was slotted to attend a "vocational" high school where they taught "trades" like auto mechanics and rough carpentry and from which nobody went on to college.

If my parents hadn't sent me off to a private high school (which I only half-jokingly called an academic correctional institution), I probably would have gone down the blue collar cattle chute. I still I barely got into college anyway. From Kindergarten through my sophomore year in college, I was at best a C-minus student. To me, school was prison.

Of course I still learned plenty. Some if it was taught to me. But most of it I acquired on my own. The system never stifled my curiousity." (source)
