I think we should heavy support /View and not depending on Flash. View
engine has far more better base technology and it is in some aspects
comparable and even better with Flash.(Please, take in mind that /View
graphics is version 1.1 and flash at version 6). I know Flash have
antialiasing, rotation, better and free sound but this and more could be
relatively easily implemented also in View. It is up to us, testers,
developers, rebol users, customers to show RT the problems/possibilities so
they will be more concentrate on all that improvements.
as Carl said: "Yes, REBOL could be a competitor to Flash... I would like to
see that happen."
on my /View enhancments suggestions: "Carl: Yes... we've got many of the
same ideas for what to do. In fact, things like Streaming are pretty high
on our list... and much of it has been done, just not released."

Cyphre
PS: IMO even now it is possible to make multimedia stuff in View (check
