E-guile link

IMNSHO, what Josh means is that the WAY gnucash uses guile needs to
be fixed, and the way that gnucash is so /dependent/ on guile needs
to be fixed.  Guile needs to be removed from the startup sequence.
Gnucash needs to depend LESS upon guile.

But I don't EVER see guile being /completely/ removed.  I definitely
do not believe that eguile would be ripped out in a year.
