That said, fifteen plus years to be still talking about it equates to several eons in software development time, so it definitely is a drag that it has taken so long for such a significant project to get with the new millennium already.

Oh, that's Emacs for you. It's VERY stable, in both bad ways and good ways. Not many platforms that are still widely used and that you can run the same macros on as you could decades ago.

Here's Wiegley talking about guile and concurrency three years back. Is guile even still on the table? I just use emacs and don't even try keeping up with stuff like this https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-10/msg00007.html

I don't think it's *totally* clear what "on the table" means in this context, but I wouldn't hold your breath for guile Emacs (or for rust Emacs).

Blackbeard: the code is stuffed full of my-personal-crap; if I get a chance though I'll clean it up and share.

it's kind of clear that elisp wants to be common lisp. guile is most definitively a scheme.

As one who cannot code *lisp jack 'chit... would not common lisp be a most "portable" choice??

although the relationship between the scheme implementations and their spec seems a little loose.
