What do you mean by "live in 2.0.x"?  Does this mean that we should
avoid working on deeper changes to Guile for the next year or two?

What does this mean for my pending patches that support
arbitrary-precision floats and GOOPS-based numeric types?

It's too bad, because I'm all fired up to do a bunch of work on guile,
not just on numerics but other stuff too.  Bad timing, I guess.

I don't mean to apply pressure here.  I can appreciate the issues faced
by maintainers, who must balance stability vs new development, and I
very much appreciate that you applied so many of my patches so soon
before the 2.0.0 release.

     Best,
      Mark
