Well, yes and no. Yes, because you can do most of the basic things
that you get with IOS with a wiki too. No, because an HTML page is
in no way close to the power of a reblet. :-)

Because  you  can't  hope  to  conquer  the world in one step. ;-)
(Also,  the main point I was making is the opportunities we get in
rapid  application  development,  and  easy  and rapid application
maintenance. Instead of programming, you describe: the whole point
of REBOL probably.)

PK> Does it enable cooperation?

It does, in the same way the web does. IOS's surely much better in
this regard, but it also depends on what you're doing.

Just a couple minutes for me, on Linux with Apache.

It's a dynamic hypertext.

It's that short enough? ;-)

(Basically  you  let  visitors  add  or  modify  the  nodes of the
hypertext,  as  well as add or modify links between nodes; Vanilla
also  allows  to  decide who is able to modify what, and tells you
who has modified what, and other nice things...)

Regards,
   Gabriele.
