I think http://ccl.clozure.com/ provides more information.

Drop c-l-c integration.

Running CCL only requires the kernel and the full-image (and
tools/asdf.lisp if you want)

I think you can upload a binary package like 'ccl-bootstrap' and build
the real 'ccl' package using it.  Then use 'ccl' to build the next
version directly.  This would implement self-hosting.

NOTE, no need to put the compiled kernel and image file in the source
package.  CCL has different images on i386, ppc, amd64 and arm, they
are all too big!

Thanks,
Des
