I find this kind of description very helpful. Thank you for taking the
time to write it.
I hope I am not misunderstanding, but it seems to me that this is not
far from suggesting that REBOL/IOS is a `BIOS' where the basic elements
are Internet `Objects' rather than physical disks, physical ports, ...
I can't tell yet whether this is an `evolutionary growth' or a `radical
re-engineering' of REBOL inner structures, but will look forward to that
becoming clear as more of the characteristics of this exciting
new development become real.
