[REBOL] Re: Morpheus - the bitter thruth?

Chaz,
I'm not sure what the point of even posting such a cryptic and obscure message is , but
it's good to see carl is still alive, his first post in a *long* time.
Just hope Carl or REBOL aren't thinking or planning any stupid proprietary P2P system,
Morpheous and others are already competing in the space with varying degrees of success
and failure, and Iam confident that the only way any internet distribution system is
going to succeed is by being based on completely open protocols and not proprietary -
the world wide web and email are perfect examples of these.
Anything else is backing a loser.
Everybody has to be free to join in and interoperate and be able to set up and use &
contributeusing their own systems.
This is what made the web & email a success and is what will need to happen in Instant-Messaging
& P2P for these to truly succeed.
However REBOL could and should be used to develop the bleeding edge of a super new open
P2P system.
My 2 pence worth.
