Do you even Scheme?

>>8 but it seems much more in line with r7rs than say, MIT-scheme, Gerbil or Racket -not that there aren't some warts. And it seems like there are plenty of implementations like Chibi, STklos, Gauche, Chez, Chicken that in the same size neighborhood and have their own extensions. But GNU, that's true, that probably does go some way to explaining it. (I have to disagree with the idea that it's pushed by the GNU though, the idea that GNU is the official extension language of the GNU project is meaningless next to the mountain of Python bindings that GNU projects actually have.)

It can be expected of gnu to push out something completely compliant the first but not always. That knowledge probably isn't held by those pushing guile is not scheme seriously and not as a joke. I was pushing it as a joke though.
It's depressing gnu won't write it's own python 2 and python 1 implementation with gnu peps, python 2 has tachyon now since it will never die. There might be a python 1 implementation hidden somewhere on savanna though.

This is probably not the reason, but technically Guile supports multiple languages: https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Supporting-Multiple-Languages.html

Python-on-Guile exists, but I am unsure which version it targets: https://gitlab.com/python-on-guile/python-on-guile
