Hi Bernie :
As you well know, I dedicated weeks, months even to that site, trying to
get weekly emails out, drum up contests / participants, articles,
interesting content etc.
Yes , I know you put a lot of effort into many things RS3D
related . When I complain about how dead the Info site is ,
it's not directed at you since I think you have washed your
hands of it .
I had great expectations for the site and RS.. We can only hope that
things will pickup and the glory days return .. :)
I think it will take a lot more than hope . It will take a couple
of people that RS likes a lot , who have convinced RS that they
are capable and devoted enough to try and slap the paddles on it .
RS is way too busy . The advanced people we had are gone . They
are using other S/W for their business too , which is also very
busy .
We can hope , of course . However , it's 2008 and Christ , also,
is still missing .

G'day Garry -
Are you saying the RS Info site _IS_ dynamic ? I'm guessing in the
same way the very old Real3D FTP site was ? (IE : not very)
long story. But yes - its a dynamic backend - ie Postnuke (same as
forum) vs static HTML pages that I had to update manually to add content.
The whole idea of the daemon was so people could add content there
themselves vs emailling to me and uploading.
As you well know, I dedicated weeks, months even to that site, trying to
get weekly emails out, drum up contests / participants, articles,
interesting content etc.
But in the end, life got busy. Family came along, building own house
from scratch solo, my business took off and time became a highly
precious commodity (and still is) Hence the site was handed over to
others with the hope that they could continue the "tradition".
I had great expectations for the site and RS.. We can only hope that
things will pickup and the glory days return .. :)
Regards
Bernie
