I have pushed another quick set of modifications; all grammar and punctuation, with some chopping up by adding new subsections. In doing so, I stumbled on the following passage under Upgrading ASDF: Starting with ASDF 3 (2.27 or later), this self-upgrade will be automatically attempted as the first step to any system operation, to avoid any possibility of a catastrophic attempt to self-upgrade in midflight. It's not clear to me from the context what "this self-upgrade" refers to, nor how it's triggered. Is this because all systems have an implicit requirement of :depends-on ASDF? So that when ASDF scans its registry it finds any new version and automagically updates it? thx, R
