Is 1.6.x not considered the latest working release? depends who you ask (as usual). the impersonal "it" is no friend of the inquisitive, although the upgrade fashion victims don't seem to mind. the sooner you know yourself the sooner you know the best way to find trust in others. all this is to say you would do well to examine what aspects of guile (or any software for which there is source code available) you find attractive and only afterwards see which label is affixed to the guile that provides those aspects. this approach will suit your needs better in the long run, than the alternative, which is to jump on the latest w/o question, which is fine if your needs coincide w/ that which is provided but tricky to guarantee w/ human beings involved. thi _______________________________________________ Guile-user mailing list Guile-user@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-user
