I think so too. Compaired to the horrible mess of a "language" yocto
uses, guile scheme is really an improvement here. Unfortunatly
cross-compiling still seems to be experimental. I ran into a lot of
issues getting even the basic setup to work (for a list look at the
response to Richard, even though my mail seems to be lost). Definitly
not production ready but the potential is there.
