William, Do these count: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Neumann_universal_constructor ? Read these papers: Computational Ontogeny, already published in Biological Theory and Constructor Ontogeny, accepted for full presentation at ECTA-2012. Send your email address and I will forward these papers. I am interested in seeing these papers.

It has some anti-spam protection which is slightly safer than posting one's e-mail address directly to this list.
