Hi Maarten,

I am very sorry to hear this news. I think there is a current and on-going
need for scripts such as Rugby. There are many REBOL users who will not be
going the full IOS/Express route due to cost and other factors.

I see no harm to RT, and much benefit to the rest of us, from the continued
availability of wonderful scripts such as Rugby. I do not agree with the
argument that if RT decides to include some feature in its commercial
product line (IOS/Express), we should not develop Core or View based apps
which share those features. Would you argue, that because some of the IOS
Reblets have simple business graphics capabilities, none of us should
develop or distribute graphics scripts?

I hope that you will reconsider this decision.

-Larry
