Actually, Linus would be quite disappointed...the tubs here are only 'warm' springs,
that is about 92F or 33C. There is a hottub also that's about 102F.
As for Petr's original question and Ole's follow-up, there is no plan to 'sell out'
REBOL. This was a typical out of context misunderstanding that goes on b/w
interviewer and interviewee. We were asked if we could 'ever' be purchased by a large
corporation and we said it was possible some day, but that we were purely focused on
our technical and marketing vision. Any discussion of IPO or acquisition is purely
speculative at this time and a distraction from the many technical and business
challenges we are facing right now. In other words, we really don't talk about it or
even think about it...there's not enough time.
After we've achieved a million downloads and hundreds of thousands of REBOL users,
plus numerous strategic alliances, then come back and ask us about an IPO or
acquisition possibility :)
