We are pleased to announce GNU Guile release 2.0.14, the next
maintenance release for the 2.0.x stable series.  This release contains
18 commits by 5 people over 4 months.

Guile is an implementation of the Scheme programming language.  It is
designed to help programmers create flexible applications that can be
extended by users or other programmers with plug-ins, modules, or
scripts.  With Guile you can create applications and games for the
desktop, the Web, the command-line, and more.

See https://gnu.org/software/guile/ for more information.

In parallel the Guile development team has been hard at work on the next
stable series, which we hope will see a stable release within the next
couple months.  You are encouraged to try out the recent 2.1.6 release
that was announced a few weeks ago:

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify guile-2.0.14.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 
3CE464558A84FDC69DB40CFB090B11993D9AEBB5

and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
  Autoconf 2.69
  Automake 1.15
  Libtool 2.4.6
  Makeinfo 6.3
  Gnulib v0.1-800-g68b6ade

========================================================================

Changes in 2.0.14 (since 2.0.13):

* Bug fixes

** Builds of .go files and of Guile itself are now bit-reproducible
   (<http://bugs.gnu.org/20272>)

** 'number->locale-string' and 'monetary-amount->locale-string' fixes
   (<http://bugs.gnu.org/24990>)

** (system base target) now recognizes "sh3" as a cross-compilation target

** Fix race condition in '00-repl-server.test'
   (<http://bugs.gnu.org/24769>)

** 'scandir' from (ice-9 ftw) no longer calls 'stat' for each entry

** Several documentation improvements

========================================================================

You can follow Guile development in the Git repository and on the Guile
mailing lists.  Note that Guile builds from the 'master' branch of Git
have version number 2.1.x; the stable release series can be had from
'stable-2.0'.

Guile versions with an odd middle number, e.g., 2.1.*, are unstable
development versions.  Even middle numbers indicate stable versions.
This has been the case since the 1.3.* series.

Please report bugs to address@hidden  We also welcome reports of
successful builds, which can be sent to the same email address.

Happy hacking with Guile!

Ludovic, on behalf of the Guile team.
