That's a good idea :)

 I've noticed that you guys have opted for guile + home bytecode

Our first experiments with scheme and gephex where done with mzscheme.
Something like a bytecode compiler is in my opinion not very important
for our use, because the scheme layer is on top of the realtime layer
written in c++. And the design of the communication protocol between
them must ensure that the realtime system can't be blocked by the scheme
layer.
