<janneke>OriansJ: let me sleep on that, mes-boot just failed on me again (silly script bug) :-)
<OriansJ>With some engineering, I could probably get mes-m2 to be only 180KB in size; combined with slow-utils; we thus would have the ultimately bootstrap binary for guix. A scheme operating system bootstrapped from a tiny scheme interpreter able to directly build GCC.
<OriansJ>able to directly run guix scripts
<janneke>yeah, wow
*janneke ->zZzz
<OriansJ>and the stage0 bootstrap becomes a static check that needs only be ported to new platforms
