Can't enlighten you on the chicken-egg problem. I'll be interested in the
response, as well. But, as someone who is also interested in Retro and
Factor, I was interested in why you chose to discard Factor. I see it as a
matter of what kind of program you want to write. For high-level, multi-os
programs I think Factor is superior. However, Retro probably holds the edge
for embedded programs. Also, Factor has a steeper learning curve.
