Red was announced and started last year in March. It's basically 2 languages and until last month development was going towards compiled low-level dialect Red/System. I was actually impressed by speed of things moving in Red/System and many members of small REBOL community contributed to it. (It had GTK bindings, ZMQ, port to android, while it was still in development).
The announcement this week about "print 1" is about the fact that now the "Red" (higher, rebol-like level) language is also at the brink of working.
