I really hope that that's not Guile's primary goal these days (and my understanding is that it is not): i wouldn't be much interested if those were its goals ("orchestrator of business oriented code" sounds particularly dreadful :-)). Goals aside, Guile 2.x looks to me as a perfectly fine platform to implement a wide range of applications, and, IMHO, it should be promoted and developed as such.
