Hi, Please don’t cross-post to the whole world (I suppose a free mail user agent would have honored ‘Mail-Followup-To’...)

That sounds like hindsight from the Cygnus days, roughly the 1990s. ;-) I invite you to look at Guile as it is *today*. It’s a modern implementation of a modern language, and I dare say one that is pleasant to work with (live programming with Geiser!). Guix builds upon the versatility of Guile: We do things ranging from low-level stuff (syscalls, ELF fiddling, cpio implementation) to high-level embedded domain-specific languages (package definitions, operating system declarations, etc.) I think few languages/implementations would allow us to cover the whole spectrum this conveniently. Thanks, Ludo’.
