abcdw, There are some rumors, that a new guile release is comming soon! :)
It's especially important, because we use cutting edge (ice-9 textual-ports) in guile-ares-rs, backend for Arei Guile IDE:
https://git.sr.ht/~abcdw/guile-ares-rs
https://git.sr.ht/~abcdw/emacs-areiThat means everyone would be able to use it without relying on guile-next guix package and all the hussle associated with it.
