[REBOL] Re: Dialecting......

From: idsrini::gmail::com at: 8-Feb-2009 0:02

Hi Gregg,

I agree completely - The languages that we have around today make it very painful to develop teaching aids. Rebol, with its expressiveness, helps mitigate it to quite an extent.... However, the issue would be with acceptance, if REBOL is used only for teaching tools. Income has to be generated from sales and if REBOL is successful in penerating some part of the production users market, then sustainability of the product is assurred, leading to wider acceptance. Gregg, When do you realistically expect R3 to be stabilised ?, that is, if you have some inkling. Is it worth getting into R2.76 for developing software, now? I would appreciate some feedback on this. Regards, Srini On 07/02/2009, Gregg Irwin <gregg-pointillistic.com> wrote:
