If you follow the path down http://cosy.com/language/cosyevo.htm , you will
see the notion I have had since the early `80s has been an open linguistic
environment tightly coupled to notebook hardware .
( if you don`t have your computer with you , what good is it . )
This remains my vision .

There should not be . If you encounter any , post them and we`ll solve them .

Definitely . The problem with my moving to any specific new APL has always
been the revenue model . Many of the things CoSy is good at are too
commonplace for professional APLer`s to drop dollars for . But selling a
PIM built on a $1500 buy in ain`t an easy one .
