Again, can't speak to giving out commit access... that's not my area. But if you have documentation patches, and since you've done copyright assignment, those would be most welcome. If you could post them to the list, I could help get them into the wip-elisp branch!

I was hoping we could land the uncontroversial patches, to make the diff easier to review and simplify any future rebases. I mentioned the defsubst commits as they seemed reasonable at first glance. Is this feasible? > you'd definitely need to do copyright assignment for Guile. I think other "establishing yourself in the community" things apply, informally(??) I have copyright assignment all in order now :). I don't have any wild ambitions for sweeping changes, I just thought it might be easier to land simple docs patches without making work for the core Guile folks.

Last I heard, Wingo was interested in merging, but looked over the branch and saw that it wasn't a trivial merge... the branch added some non-trivial changes to the compiler, and I think Wingo wanted to review those before merging. (I'm not really qualified to help, there.) > Relatedly, what's the process for getting commit access to Guile?

Status of elisp support in Guile
I've noticed that NEWS in Guile trunk says: ** Complete Emacs-compatible Elisp implementation However, I can see that there are 36 commits on the wip-elisp branch that aren't in master. For example, defsubst support[1] seems only to be on wip-elisp branch. It's still the case the guile-emacs docs[2] recommend using the wip-elisp branch. I can merge master into wip-elisp only one trivial conflict[3]. Can anyone shed any light on the work outstanding here, and the process to land these patches? Relatedly, what's the process for getting commit access to Guile?
