So, sounds like the current situation with git instead of bzr, and
hosted on savannah.

Yes this should be the solution in any case -- fragmenting fora for
Guile discussion is not in our interest.

Maybe your solution is best -- it lets us keep guile-lib's unit tests
and documentation system intact, doesn't bind us quite to the quality
standards of guile, but still gives us the advantages of the
git/savannah switch.

OK, ok, ok... ;-)

So I'll see about doing this this afternoon, if everything works out.
