... but... being Dan the kind person he is... he could explain us all
what Rebol Tech means for "commercial license" exactly, before we
start the usual infinite thread about the beauty of open-source
and/or grim prevision about REBOL future and/or... well, you know it
;-)
While the business model for /Pro, /Command, /Runtime and /Express is
quite clear, I find that the concept of "commercial use" of /View and
/Core is quite foggy and needs to be clarified.
