[REBOL] Re: Compatibility REBOL 2.x / REBOL 3.0 ?

hi Jedi,
as an example, I know for certain that just about 0% of my 10 years of rebol
codebase is compatible with R3. not only the view stuff but even the core
stuff too.
if you consider elixir with its over 350kb of assembled (and already clean
and compact) code.. this is not so trivial, but its the price to pay for
improvements. currently, I'm not attempting ports, because R3 is still a
bit to slippery for me to consider really use, and its still lacking a few
things which are needed in most of my application development.
in fact right now, R3 would give me no real added benefits in raw feature (a
part from a boost in evaluation speed) since R2 is already competent, and
any functionality issues have been already addressed for my needs.
I just resurrected an old project of mine (which is going to be liquified
within a week or two) and just running it within 2.7.6 is causing it to
crash unexpectedly..
this is a common problem in all computer languages, unfortunately.
