GNU Guile 1.9.6 released!

Ludovic Courtès — December 16, 2009

We are pleased to announce GNU Guile 1.9.6. It is the seventh pre-release of what will eventually become the 2.0 stable series, featuring a compiler and virtual machine.

This release includes a wealth of exciting new features, including a new `eval' written in Scheme (a meta-circular evaluator), integrated dispatch of GOOPS methods in the VM, and –last but not least– an Emacs Lisp compiler! See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2009-12/msg00035.html for the complete announcement.
