With Guile it is very easy to add a lightweight, yet excellent extension language, and it is a complementary GNU project. I think it would be a fun project. That's why I'm asking - I'd like to do it myself. So I wonder if it was considered to be a bad idea. How did you arrive at MI1 and MI2? Being quite familiar with Guile, I think it would be a better choice. --bmcqueen
