Hi,

Today Mark and I were discussing the new ASDF3 capabilities which should help with deployment: the monolithic-fasl-op, binary-op and others.

While I do see lots of potential for the monolithic fasl op for code-only deployment situations, Mark and Anton brought up scenarios where a system may consist of code and resources. The code may choose to access such resources at run time through the use of the SYSTEM-RELATIVE-PATHNAME facility.

Because I don't have an immediate answer myself yet (I'm just now learning about this facility), I'm directing our discussion to asdf-devel@. How do see this scenario?

Bye,

Erik.
