a few US cities are bicycle non-hostile, here in Eugene, Oregon where 
I bike most every day of the year is one of them.

The trouble is, that the situation is worse, as far as I am concerned. 
To me, MOLD is quite "hostile" actually

it is overall interesting issue - to get rebol running on various 
platforms in a way so it adheres to particular platform habits .... 
OS-X, WinCE being reported as Rebol feeling kind of hostile there 
...

I had enough trouble with someone who was making hostile changes 
without discussing them first :(

Not that your changes would be hostile, but discussing them is still 
good.

I disagree on unfixing this. It's hostile towards the beginner to 
allow hanging the parser and I ran into this quite a few times, before 
finding out what went wrong.

freebol is a domain owned by the guy refered to as "hostile fork" 
afaik

Robert, how can Cheyenne know that "quantity" must be an integer! 
value if you don't tell it? Cheyenne can't validate that implicitly, 
you have to either use VALIDATE (see API doc) or make your own checking 
routines. By default, all your GET or POST  parameters are treated 
as string! value. If you need to check for their presence or need 
to convert them to another datatype, you have to validate the format 
so that it doesn't error out (or worth, let an hostile request pass).

Not for web clients. You have to assume the client is hostile for 
web stuff, and screening REBOL data for malicious stuff is harder 
than parsing JSON data. The only way to be safe is to not transmit 
an executable dialect - full data dialect, reject anything bad.

I have two reasons why I like keeping FUNC the way it is:

- FUNC is the simplest function-creating function, so giving it the 
shortest name seems appropriate.

- As a rule, we prefer to not rename old functions and then give 
their old names to new functions. That would be user-hostile.
