The posting of bad news, if they reflect the reality, is never really bad, but very helpful to alert!
The only problem I saw here was that the comment was placed in the wrong Internet place, where the
findings would not trigger improvements, rather shy away programmers who have never heard of
NetRexx, because of the "bad news" attributed to NetRexx. They would not be able/willing to
differentiate between the language and a bad implementation of an algorithm.
This group is the NetRexx focused one, such that chances are much higher, that the message is
understood and motivates NetRexx programmers to improve that particular example.

Well, Walter, let me say in public, that I *really* appreciate your (and of course Rick's!) work for
Rexx on Rosettacode *very much*! It makes a big difference and exposes the Rexx languages to a wide
audience!
However, do not be frustrated, that you do not get direct feedbacks, the human communication laws
are different on the Internet, than in a physical work group. It is (unfortunately) to be expected
that no one answers or helps or gives positive feedback! Just look at the many "silent" downloaders
and users of ooRexx (but also BSFooRexx), if everyone who downloaded would post something, we would
be flooded with messages! (In addition some of these downloads camouflage literally thousands of
users, if the download was done from professional IT departments which will re-distribute within
their organisations.)
Cheers,
