Thanks for the reply Gabriele.
I don't blame Carl for building a company around a proprietary
scripting language. On the contrary, back then I encouraged it. Back
in the 1990's, quite a few companies did this, especially during the
early years of the web. A fair number were successful. Unfortunately,
the window of opportunity closed quickly, and, among other things, RT
was a victim of bad timing.
Personally I am not concerned about Rebol's future. I would like to
see Rebol achieve success on whatever level Carl and team define. For
my individual needs, I already deem it a success.
Thanks for your many contributions to Rebol and your work on R3. Good
luck with the plans. We'll all be keen to see what lies ahead.
