I agree with the direction RT is headed in. In fact, alot of the things I
said would happen have /View is free now. And guess what I immediately
bought /Pro. I am a happy person for the purchase. Additionally, I even
chatted with Carl in Realtime. How many people get the opportunity to do
that with their language founders (Thanks Carl). I agree with the language
not being open source. I work for EDS and support large enterprise
networks. I can tell you that open source is not a mechanism that top
corporate execs care to indulge. It implies lack of support and
organization. Thats why companies like Microsoft continue to flourish with
their products. So for better or worse at least at this time it appears
that RT is listening to what we want - at least any long time member of this
list understands that by now. And I feel compassionate about the direction
they will take given that very fact. So go REBOL go!
