As REBOL has been referenced several time on OSNews, I thought that some here may be interested to know that its author has announced that REBOL will be open-sourced. The R3 source code will most likely be released under the GPLv2 license.

Cipri - I got used to you to spoil every possible Syllable related news post :-), but man - why to spoil the news, which is REBOL only related?
Also - I really don't care about what you or other ppl, not using REBOL in the past, think about the open-sourcing activity coming too late. Simply put - there are some ppl out there, who depend on REBOL based solutions, and to those ppl, it is important message.
However, as Henrik states - Red/System is done, Red itself materialises day by day. In January, we will probably see alpha release, which spans even Android, where R3 never landed. So - the only thing you might ask is - why yet another programming language? You know, that question exists for ages with no satisfactory answer :-)
