This is the first Guile release made by the Free Software Foundation.

However, Cygnus Support has made earlier releases of Guile, the most

|

recent of which is known as `guile-iii'. The present release
|
|
||||||
incorporates many bug fixes and improvements, but has dropped some

|

modules that `guile-iii' supported.

Important Facts About Snapshots ======================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Please keep in mind that these sources are strictly experimental; they
|
||||||
|
will usually not be well-tested, and may not even compile on some
|
||||||
|
systems. They may contain interfaces which will change. They will
|
||||||
|
usually not be of sufficient quality for use by people not comfortable
|
||||||
|
hacking the innards of Guile. Caveat!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
However, we're providing them anyway for several reasons. We'd like
|
||||||
|
to encourage people to get involved in developing Guile. People
|
||||||
|
willing to use the bleeding edge of development can get earlier access
|
||||||
|
to new, experimental features. Patches submitted relative to recent
|
||||||
|
snapshots will be easier for us to evaluate and install, since the
|
||||||
|
patch's original sources will be closer to what we're working with.
|
||||||
|
And it allows us to start testing features earlier.
