Thanks Jens, I am actually more interested with long term viability of Whalesong than being able to run it right now, hence my questions related to bootstrapped version (and compiler + expander in Racket). My current understanding is that outside of narrow use Whalesong is too risky a bet at least until it becomes selfhosted. Please correct me if I am wrong but I am not a compiler person rather someone deciding on the future direction of his projects impressed with Racket but unsure on the direction and priorities for future Racket. I am also writing this post to show there is an interest in Javascript Racket (and ClojureScript competitor).
