On a related note, I saw this article on CodingHorror.com the other day:

Building Tiny, Ultra-Low-Power PCs

R3 is a decade's worth worth of work being handled by a few people on a
limited basis. RT works on the core technology, and the rest will be up to
us. I think many would agree that Efika and other platforms would be great
opportunities for REBOL. I think it's a good idea to carefully describe some
of the key use-cases or scenarios which which would be highly desirable for
R3 to support. Other than that, it's up to us to build the future.

One other thought, of course, would be to raise some funds or collect
donations to pay RT to build in certain functionality. If anyone knows if RT
is open to that avenue, it might be an avenue for us to have RT open up
REBOL to a whole new community of users.
