It's cool to see new languages and tools being developed. The Change page text contains a few surprising statements though: > Leaving `binutils` and GCC aside, bootstrapping a Hare tool chain > only takes a few minutes. I guess this doesn't really apply to Fedora users, because everyti will packaged.

Packaging Hare > modules and applications should result in little friction. Can you expand a bit on this? Is the workflow for updates of software written in Hare going to be somehow different than e.g. for C applications? What does "responsibility of system package managers" mean?
