Oh, cool! The #REBOL like language called #Boron has development activity again. https://urlan.sourceforge.net/boron
It was in hibernation for probably a decade (2009 or 2010 to 2019, it looks like), but has been active again since early 2019.

In other news, #REBOL still exists. I remember learning about it back in... 1998? The surprising thing is that it apparently survived all the way from 1997 to the end of 2012 without being #opensource. The whole idea of writing software in someone else's proprietary #language just sounds so... incredibly #offputting.

I remember reading that the #ARexx creator's experience helped shape the creation of #Rebol.
