[asdf-devel] asdf output locations

[Robert Goldman]

Having the documentation here is helpful, but a few examples would be
even more helpful.

For example, if I wanted to replicate Gary's A-B-L in the new
configuration language, how would I do that?  I don't see an opportunity
in the language to grab info about the lisp implementation and compute a
binary pathname.  Is it possible to perform arbitrary computations in
the configuration file?  *features* is not enough to do what Gary does.

Also, one obvious extension to the existing A-B-L would be to direct
different kinds of components to write the outputs of their various
operations into different places.  Is that possible with this framework?
 E.g., write C object files to a specific location, dump parenscript
preprocessing outputs (javascript files) into a directory from which
they will be served by the web server, etc.

A sample configuration file or two is needed before we can assess the
framework.
