[REBOL] Compiler for Rebol ? Re:(6)

Hi:
I see that we have taken a thread more about
strategy and marketing here, and I hope
rebol team people are reading this.
Interesting thing coming up here... I think.
Koffice (KDE answer to Microsoft Office)
is supposed to provide hooks to a number of
languages, rather than a proprietory VBA
as does MS-Office.
Perhaps Carl and folks should consider looking
into this and perhaps trying to make sure that
Koffice provides such "hooks" for rebol.
I could sure "dig it".
It is reasonable to speculate that in the next
year, in the area that I live in we will see a number
of networks of small organizations running
Windows on top of Linux through something
like Win4Lin. With KOffice there would then
be a cheaper alternative to Microsoft's expensive
Office license. It then follows that a considerable
amount of small-module programming would happen.
I'm already putting together General Purpose modules
for Ms-Access using VBA. I'd rather be doing that
in rebol!
:)
