[REBOL] Re: [data type conversion] question

Hi Brett,
Anyhow, at least it seems like Carl and the community are in-tune to what is improvable
with dialects. so when he does decide to reopen that part of rebol, it most probably
will solve the issues we do have, not just his own.
I think Carl has the same problem some of us have...
he only has two arms... ;-)
but he has ideas and designs for a hundred... and is a perfectionist...
One thing is obvious and that is that rebol as a platform is now, again, gaining momentum.
Specific issues are being solved, and we are now starting to see new tools, not just
fixes and projects. NEW users are always appearing, and some of them have been working
on big projects, right off the bat!
For my part, I'd like to give a firm ETA on glayout, but I've constantly been raising
the bar, so the delivery is always around the corner... And I can't catch up. ;-)
The good news is that it HAS progressed a lot. Many issues I didn't feel like solving
HAVE been solved, and its starting to feel much less like a demo/beta api and much more
like a polished tool. And since it sits on top of VID, you guys will be able to integrate
your stuff into it.

You can either be part of the problem or part of the solution, but in the end, being
part of the problem is much more fun.
