Re: Guile and MS-Windows on Major Govt. Project...

[Chris Bitmead]

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions which I will look into, including 
the people who pointed me towards plt-scheme, which I will investigate. 
BTW, I'm interested why the plt-scheme supporters are hanging around the 
guile mailing list?

For the guile people, I think you're missing a big opportunity to supply 
guile pre-built in binary form, especially on Windows where it's harder 
to build. (It aint a walk in the park on Linux either). Bundle goops and 
gtk into a Windows build with full Linux compatibility and I think you 
have a very attractive app. Lots of people, especially governments must 
have multi-platform compatibility and it is a shoe in for gnu software. 
I will also look at lilypond to see if that helps.
