REBOL Release 3

EXTENSIONS!

Be sure to check out the buzz around (what were REBOL plugins, now with REBOL flair) Extensions.
For Release A77 and up, Concepts: Extensions

R3 in the wild

Our good Maxim Olivier-Adlhoch (after three times fast, Mad Max is easier ;) ) has already posted images from his experiments that extend REBOL 3 into OpenGL for hardware accelerated graphics. See altme archive for a link to the image and the surrounding conversation.

That's it. Extensions. REBOL 3 yells Hello World.

Cheers from the Rebol Week crew.
Psst, words of BETA have started to float in the blogosphere.
