As a user of both Guile and Emacs this project has always intrigued me, but I think people arguing for speed, multitasking, or configuring Emacs in Scheme or Javascript are missing the point. Guile Emacs represents an ideal where GNU projects share a common library that all benefit from shared improvements. For example, if Guile gets native compilation, Guile Emacs, Guix, and any other Guile project gets native compilation. I would never write my Emacs config in Scheme, but I wouldn't hesitate to call a Scheme library from Emacs, or an Elisp library from a Guile project. Guile Emacs would be a huge step unifying all of these separate GNU projects from both a technical and social point of view.

I agree, though Emacs does support native compilation at the moment (it's still a work in progress though). It would have been nice if the Guile stuff go merged, but I think that ship has sailed and we should just embrace the native compiler included in Emacs.
