I think, that most ppl here will feel the same. Now we have to deal with RT
ability to hear our voices. As you can see, RT's website is silently being
updated on several places:
http://www.rebol.com/company.html
http://www.rebol.com/reblets.html
http://www.rebol.com/security.html
http://www.rebol.com/products.html
As you can see, Rebol products page is new too. Express reference page
contained some little bit updated info as of August 23. But alarm my
friends - soud capabilities are once again mentioned in regard to View/Pro
product. So - the question is - is it RT's decision to let it be that way,
or new product page is quick hack, so noone properly looked at its content?
Well, later on - I got to following page, so it seems sound is really going
to be freed? http://www.rebol.com/prod-view.html (btw: what is "block
translator", and "anonymous functions (lambda)"? :-)
RT's product policy, licensing schemes change so often, that many of us
probably feel unstable about Rebol. RT now has new marketing manager in
charge - Scot M. Sutherland, so let's hope we will get licensing schemes
suitable for all of us. Currently however, the only one "channel" to rebol
programmers, users, is this ml. While RT claims they listen to us, I can bet
they will get things out without asking us for our opinions, so let's just
hope we will not see folks here leave their rebol related projects, because
of unsuitable licensing terms ...
