No please don't misunderstand me!  I didn't mean it was a legal issue.  
It's just that when we had this discussion a while back, I got the 
impression that GNU projects *should* use GNU guile as *the* "official" 
scripting/testing framework and a lot of people put a lot of work into 
it.  That's why, back then, it was pointed out that we *should* use the 
*GNU* libraray rather than some other free library.

Back then, I might have prefered using OCUnit, but now I also went 
through the trouble of learning (parts of) guile / greg / scheme and I'm 
pretty close to submitting something now, I'm a little reluctant to 
throw that away.

But given Adams response, we might still go that route, once it's up to par.

Cheers,
Dave
