GNU Guile 1.9.8 released!

Ludovic Courtès — February 17, 2010

We are pleased to announce GNU Guile 1.9.8. It is the ninth pre-release of what will eventually become the 2.0 stable series, featuring a compiler and virtual machine.

This release brings us closer to 2.0, bringing a new dynamic "foreign function interface" (FFI), an implementation of Phil Bagwell's vlists and hash lists, and the usual collection of optimizations, bug fixes, and portability improvements. See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2010-02/msg00030.html for the announcement.
