I just hope I don't understand you correctly robert, but aren't you 
suggesting having rebol distributed with all of our scripts? That is MS 
way of doing things, waste of bandwidth etc. There should be central 
engine - rebol/whatever installed on your hd, it should check for its 
updates and scripts should come as packages (as IOS desktop does). I 
would hate to redownload 500KB each time just because someone changes 
one function in script ...
