[REBOL] Re: XML-RPC is coming to Rugby

Point to note:
Some small fishes eventually grow to be big fishes. Other fishes tend to copy the
behavior of the successful fishes. Well, maybe fish dont really mimic another, but
humans and companies surely do.
Thus so, REBOL's success is directly related to ours.

of thinking comes from the fact that we have to use
language to communicate our inner experience
which in its very nature transcends lingistics.
