Thanks for the info
We are 2 or 3 non-dev volonteers. pchrist is busy with life and common-lisp stuff, grozin and radhermit give a hand on some packages. The lisp overlay guys are easily rechable through #gentoo-lisp or gentoo-lisp mailing list. About guile, I'm the only one having touched it for the last 2 years [1]. I think I could proxy-maint it, with an experienced dev in eselect modules and multiple SLOT packages. > > > dev-scheme/hop > > > > I work with hop upstream (and for dev-scheme/bigloo too).

Even if I do think that hop in the tree is not needed currently, it does not build, it is very outdated. I think people using it use it from the lisp overlay where I just pushed 2.4.0. I won't object if dev-scheme/hop is tree-cleaned. I'd better finish my quizzes first :-) -- Cyprien Nicolas (Fulax) Gentoo Lisp project contrib
