I didn't say that in a despective way at all. My only point is that Red - as far I've seen it at least - tries to maintain a great deal of compatibility with Rebol, while Arturo used it as a starting point. (Arturo can be run as valid Rebol code, only if you stick to the absolute basics)
Even using it as an inspiration, it's obvious that I absolutely respect both projects.
Again, what I'm trying to do is take the good points and create something completely new.
Looking forward to hearing your feedback/ideas/suggestion/anything. I'm all ears! :)
(Code contributions are also 100% welcome!)
