This sounds a little vague though :-(
Forgive my prodding, do you have some concrete date? I have dumped a few of
my servlets for Rebol CGI scripts since they are faster to develop and
debug. I am developing a web application that I�ll like to deploy with
REBOL and if the "Tiny Web server" script suits my needs I�ll have a talk
with the coders of the script and mybe deploy that too as a complete
package. I�m very sure many other programmers would think in this
direction. It would be a boost for REBOL if companys can prove that REBOL
alone can get the job done in contrary to the web applications that have a
nice mix of the hefty java JDK, JSDK for servlets, Perl or VB for ASP (
believe me, I seen enough hard to manage, unfathomable Web applications
with this sort of mix )
It all comes down to: When? �cause I�ll like to base one product on REBOL,
and if things work well, ALL
Flexible licensing model? we�ll all need it someday
what else? get Core to support at least 1 free DB, or
create one yourselves! I�ll personally buy a copy for
myself and the company!!!
REBOL is going to be a big thing, with a flexible licensing model, Database
and native OS command execution, many people would defect. I�ve "REBOLed"
already.......
