> I am pleased to announce the release of Mes 0.14, representing 98 commits over 4 weeks.  Mes+MesCC now compiles a self-hosting TinyCC that has only been slightly patched.
> This means that we can now build a tcc that depends only on a 1MB ASCII M1 seed.  GuixSD currently uses a ~250MB binary seed to build gcc.
> Next targets are: build gcc using this almost full-source bootstrapped tcc, and reduce the 1MB ASCII M1 seed to ~100KB of M2 source, which is a restricted subset of C.
> Packages are available from Guix's wip-bootstrap branch.

Amazing work as always Janneke
