Gerd has stepped down as maintainer and RMS is maintaing Emacs again.
I don't think Emacs people have anything against Guile as an extension
language -- they just don't want to do the work. If we present them
with a working example, then maybe we can start discussing a merger.
I think most Emacs folks would love to see threading and closures, for
example.
The only longterm plan I've seen is that Emacs will start using
Unicode for internal representation.

Yes, Emacs is available via CVS from savannah.gnu.org.
