We should work toward modularizing the Axiom system. More specifically:
(1) we should have standalone bootsys, that can translate, compile
Boot codes. It should be able to create standalone executable from
Boot+Lisp programs.
(2) we should have a standalone interpreter that can work with any set
of algebras
(3) we should have a standalone compiler that can work with any set of
algebras
(4) we should have a standalone et of standard algebras can be be used
with any "standard conformant" Axiom interpreter or compiler.
No doubt, that is work.
