Summary: simplify guile-emacs description
Changed:
< The GuileEmacs project is to replace EmacsLisp with Guile, or more recently, to replace Emacs's Elisp engine with Guile's implementation of Elisp, and get Scheme support (and other languages) in parallel, because Guile supports Elisp as one of its front-end languages for its VM/IL. See GuileEmacsTodo, this project finally shows some very encouraging progress as of 2013-03.

Guile, a dialect of Scheme, is the native language of the GNU standard extension language interpreter (http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/).
