Literate supporting ASDF loads.... what a truly awesome idea. That would mean that the literate idea could be spread to the rest of the lisp community. Then literate files could be remotely hosted ASDF files and drag-and-drop becomes so much easier. That idea collapses whole layers of complexity out of the build tower. The build would amount to ASDF-loading the interpreter, the compiler, and the algebra. Very, very sweet. Even if we can't make it work I'm impressed with the idea.
