I agree. AltME is good for live relatively intimate discussions, when one
is keeping up daily, and swimming energetically in the stream. But its
structure, archive interface, import/export, formatting, linking and any
modern re-usable google access leave much to be desired.
If it were openSource then it would be much easier for REbolers to
contribute to its developement. Kind of ironic since AltME is 'free', and
that precisely this sort of fast extensibility is one of the jopbs Rebol is
supposed to be good at.
