I would still like to do this, for 1.9.15 if possible.

Ludovic is our hero!

I merged in elisp.  I don't want to merge in Lua until it implements all
of Lua; it's close but there are some multiple-value issues that still
need to be sorted.  I would like to merge the PEG parser soon too; but
there are some things about it that I would like to review first.

Thanks to all that

We could still use someone to do this -- to review the web site to see
if it actually expresses the message that we want to express, and to do
some PR.  I think Guile 2.0 is a good story, but the press basically
needs to be spoon-fed, I think...  Anyone want to take this one?  I seem
to recall Julian having an interest ;-)  And I think that Mike had some
opinions on this at one point, too...

Here we have changed, as mentioned: we will release another 1.9.15 on 2
February, and 2.0 on 16 February, if all goes well.

Ciao,
