RT was trying to make money on selling PRO and SDK licenses, but it looks that people these days want everything just for free and open. Anyway, I agree, that Rebol should be more open with R3 and I hope, RT will still have enough income to continue in it's existence. Because it's not easy to live in corporation's driven IT world these days.
