[asdf-devel] A dream for ASDF2

I must second Faré's response.  We are free to modify ASDF, I believe,
and to improve it, but with backward compatibility as a boundary condition.

I encourage you to take these ideas --- which seem like good ones ---
and invest them either in tool support or into a true ASDF /successor/,
such as XCVB.

Alternatively, if you can achieve some of them in the ASDF framework
(e.g., improve test-op or add a release-op), more power to you!

Best,
Robert
