I've been planning to write and ask Jay about the current status
of Flux.  But I would like get some work started on CLIM and
Hemlock first.  There is plenty of work to do there, before we
start dealing with the {edit/boot/crash} cycle.

So, I would encourage everyone to grab a copy of CMUCL with
all the extra goodies (Hemlock is in there).  And learn how to
recompile/bootstrap CMUCL.

Also, one of the CMUCL developers has convinced me to use
MK:DEFSYSTEM as the basis of the build system for lispos.
There is an old copy in the contrib directory of CMUCL.  I have
put a copy of the latest version (3.0) in my ftp site.
