Thanks.  Good point.  I'm happy to incorporate whatever text you and Taylan
provide me.  In the meantime, here's what I've added:


There are some differences between Per's sample implementation and Taylan's
implementation:

Per describes one advantage of his sample implementation:

One advantage of the reference implementation is that it has hooks for

Taylan's implementation is mostly pure R7RS.


I'm sure that there are other differences, so please let me know.  I'm busy
right now preparing three new SRFIs that just arrived.

Thanks again.
