Hi all:
no, the HOST is trivially fixed, but it's not known until runtime in a web browser, why not use clients of CM3-IDE as hosts.
Obviously you need a distributed compiler and building system.

Thanks in advance

This makes little/no sense.
We already have -boot, which is wierd, works, useful. Host is always trivially known.
