   Is RT providing a codebase to work from?

  Is forum index for firefox. I have an idea: Later today I will do some
  investigating as to where we can make inquire about plugins.

  I've programmed in C for a long time. However I would be more valuable
  as a unit tester as opposed to writing code from scratch.... given
  my length of time away. I will check further for programmers.

  :-) While we are on the topic of being little-known but with great
      merit, check out the dynace system which sits "on top of" ansi C

      http://www.algorithms.us/

  It's been around a *long* time, but pretty much employed by the
  developer's company, with a *small* user base outside of the company,
  I believe, but is very mature. OOP has many merits for team
  development, but C++ drives me crazy with header file stuff. 
  (See comments in dynace site about header files).

  I'll post again once I get time to sniff around firefox forums a bit.

  P.S. While we're brain-storming about FFI for rebol? that could
       bring C programmers to rebol like java programmers are going
       to jython.
