One thing I'm a bit shaky on after reading both the rakudoweekly.blog post and nine's personal blog report: was the RakuAST bootstrap effort fully completed?

Understood, thank you!

Also thank you for your lovely write-ups on the weekly blog! They're my primary source of news on the Raku language development, and something I look forward to each week.
