cool! Any ETA? (in months, years?) :-)
Bas

Can be used for scripting like REBOL (REPL console)
Pekr

how much is it similar to REBOL syntax-wise?

Easily embeddable in other apps (think Lua)
Work in progress .. started 3 months ago, but thinking about it since 
years

Red language features tour
- Syntax is strongely inspired by REBOL
semantic rules: most of REBOL
- Type system
-- Rcih, most of REBOL types

just an embeddable core into other environments, or will some GUI 
be possible later too? Also - will concepts like 'parse be available? 
networking (and other) ports?
Bas

[194x28]
-- New types as pluggable modules (literal form accessible)
-- type inference , when possible
-- type mismatches caught at compile-time instead of runtime
@Pekr parse network ports, yes. GUI later
- First-class functions and HOF support
- Meta-programming support (JIT-compiled code)
REBOL features not supported by Red
- Too "abstracted" code
- Dynamic word binding
Red Architecture Overview
Red Memory Model
- Thread-local memory allocation
-- arrays of 128 bit cells
- Possiblity for shared immutable data structures
- Garbage collector
-- Compacting collector
-- stop-the-thread GC model
-- Incremental GC vor V1+
vor = for
Red/System language
Red Concurrent & Parallel programming
- "PPL challenge"
- Task parallelism
Nenad stops his presentation
this autumn the next ReBorCon will be
there we will be doing the presentations which couldn't be done today
now we are going to the pub
talks and confer there

Are the videos with sound being uploaded to youtube or similar service?
Just my luck to be 12 hours out of sync with the rest of the world!
