Today, doing my semi-annual check in on the world of Carl Sassenrath,<br>
genius developer of the game changing Amiga EXEC OS and creator<br>
of the (truly) cross platform REBOL language and run time environment,<br>
I very happily discover the following:<br>

REBOL has been touted as a departure from many other languages<br>
with an extreme focus on code efficieny -- capable of doing with 400<br>
characters what would take 4000 in most any other language. There<br>
is some similarity to Java in the mechanics of implementation, except<br>
that REBOL is TINY, SECURE, EFFICIENT and EASY TO CODE,<br>
with a competent, consistent GUI environment and MEDIA handling<br>
built in.<br>
<br>
That Carl has chosen to release REBOL 3.0 as Open Source is<br>
HUGE. Imagine replacing Java on Android with something that<br>
actually works the way Java was supposed to.<br>
<br>
in peace<br>
