[REBOL] Re: QubeOS - network OS ...

Hi Pekr,
Yes, I've been watching OS lately and Qube could really become interesting.
I tried d/l the SDK but the zip file I got was not correct. Since the same
executable file will run on Win32, Dos and Linux, I would really be
interested in seeing REBOL Core/View ported to it ! Now I could install
Freedos, use Qube and REBOL in the most simple setup ;) Who needs more ?
I've looked at OS mainly because I don't like what I'm using : W2K, but I
need it somehow for my PDA synchronization, Linux (mandrake) I found
unreliable with my hardware configuration... So basically I'm looking at
other offers :
QNX : outstanding, I was able to boot only using the CD ! it said it
couldn't create a swap file on my NTFS drives, but otherwise I was still
able to try it out and eventually installed it on a FAT partition. I have
found QNX to be quite stable ! REBOL/Core only ;|
Atheos.cx : really interesting ! No REBOL ;(
BeOS : Waiting for Palm to make a move with it before spending too much time
on it ! Rebol/core/view ;)
Freebsd : Next d/l
However, I have to wonder what is the current plan at Rebol/HQ.
Are they still developping/porting Rebol/core/view/ios to other platforms ?
Or have turned toward providing Rebol solutions with Rebol/IOS as Rebol
script developers as opposed to Rebol developers?
Best,
Chris
