I tend to agree ...
It's no question that I'd LOVE to see REBOL to be a competitive player
in the multimedia arena, on the other hand competing with the likes of
Flash MX and Director won't be easy, so the main question for me is
wether RT has the resources to pull it off ... as REBOL development
seems to have almost halted (at least from the outside, if there's
a lot of stuff going on I/we don't know anything about - sorry!). If
the answer is not a definite yes, then I'd rather welcome more work on
the extension interfaces, so that the users can extend REBOL to be
whatever they think it should be themselves.
As for platforms, the only ones _I_ care about are Windows, OS X and
Linux.
