Is MIT Scheme coming to GNU the first step towards a merge?

First, note that specifying that a Scheme is a "GNU program"
or "part of the GNU project" does not necessarily imply that
it is the *preferred* Scheme implementation.  Note that Kawa
is also a "GNU Scheme".

However, the name "MIT/GNU Scheme" does look awfully
close to "GNU Scheme" which suggest "the preferred
GNU implementation of Scheme".  That may not be
intentional, however.

So I suggest somebody ask RMS for a clarification.
