Hello,

Some of you may be interested in this, since this latest release focuses  
on the creation of a portable and extensible sockets library. This library  
is portable [1] to R6RS Schemes with minimal effort. I'm interested in  
thoughts and feedback, and I'd like to put this library forward as a  
draft, so that people can say, "Hey, we can get real work done without  
having to have everything standardized!" I wonder if I'll succeed in  
convincing people of this. It's also a semi-testament to the R6RS, in that  
many of the libraries that I thought were kind of useless in the R6RS  
turned out to be quite nice to use in practice. Has the R6RS done its job  
of making code more portable? Well, you decide.

You can find the sockets code and the rest of the repository at  
<gopher://gopher.sacrideo.us/1arcrepo>.

[1] No, it will not run out of the box without some porting effort, sorry.
