According to A.M. Kuchling akuchlin@mems-exchange.org:
: Guile programmers? If they’re Guile programmers, they must like
: programming in Scheme. Why would they work on translators for languages
: they’ll never use?
Perhaps a parallel example are the Java implementations of Python and
Tcl - these were written by Java programmers interested in having the
facilities of python / tcl in their java applications.
Perhaps Guile programmers never saw a need for the facilities of perl/tcl/
python.
