[REBOL] Re: Curl

Hi David,
a few suggestions:
1. Open Source Applications
I don't have the time (right now) to pursue this, but REBOL stands to
gain in exposure if there are Open Source REBOL projects advertised on
SourceForge, SlashDot, FreshMeat, etc. The challenge is to identify
attractive, feature-rich applications (backend designs for Websites, for
instance), provide intelligent configuration, and processing dialect
that enable an interested developer to easily adapt the application to
his needs, and actively pursue their implementation.
2. REBOL based productivity tools for popular programming languages:
REBOL enables you to easily design dialect based CASE tools that can
simplify the construction of programs in other programming languages
emphasizing platform independence and reusability (across platforms). By
platforms I means programming language platforms, not only hardware
platforms. Tools that target the PHP, Java, and ASP community and
provide language independence and portability are likely to expose a
tremendous number of programmers to REBOL.
3. Traditional commercial applications that integrate REBOL as an
automation language.
Commercial applications whose success is thoroughly advertised to
manager/investor/business media to make the financers and decision
makers listen up. Requires financing and support from the REBOL
community.
