Thanks ... excellent summary ... Could this be posted somewhere under http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html ? Strangely, clicking on "core projects" gives no whiff of work on VM's GC, etc. Clicking on "development -- project summary" or "development -- helping out" also leads to uninformative links. Clicking on "development -- cool ideas" lists some cool ideas, but the list also seems horridly out of date. I believe that keeping these kinds of pointers and lists up-to-date helps attract good developers, and helps maintain an air of vitality about the project. -- As I look around: some minor requests: Can someone move guile-dbi from http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/old-gnu-guile-projects.html to http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/gnu-guile-projects.html ? I now maintain guile-dbi & am using it with 1.8.5. The current version of guile-dbi is 2.1.1 not 0.5 ... Also -- GnuCash can be moved from the old list to the current list -- best of my understanding, it runs on the latest guile. I am no longer the maintainer. --linas
