Fred, can you add a new section to the forum to post the most demanding features to the language and this way all the "brains" in the forum can contribute to the cause with user libraries to acomplish thats tasks ?.
Who know, may be some library can be as good to incorporate it to new releases of the PB.
May be "Contributions needed", or "Fred ask you", etc... :wink:

You allready post in that section, it's called "Frature Requests and Wishlists" :wink:

I mean, any "brain" can look here, and write a Userlib for whatever is
asked for in this Section. What would be different in a new section?

Exactly. Another section isn't going to get anything done any faster.

My point is the new section be the Fred´s point of view about the features PB need. The actually section is for the users wishes, and my idea is Fred ranking the most important or the more frequently asked from there and compare these request with that he is working on for the next release.
If Fred found he need some help to make a user library like some to manage serial communications, or math with large numbers (64 bits), etc. he post that request as a contest to code it.
Of course all us can do the tests and improvement to this libraries to reach the quality needed to deserve included it in the official distribution.
I think we can contribute to the improvement of PB and not only "cry for a feature". :wink:
