TinyScheme RevivedJust a brief note to let people know that the TinyScheme project has been revived. Dimitrios has graciously allowed me to adopt the project. My sense is that TinyScheme needs to be a good scripting language first, and a conformant Scheme implementation second. Regrettably, there are features of Scheme that are very hard to support in an environment where Scheme calls out to C and C must be able to call back into Scheme. In particular, "call/cc" is a true nightmare in this context, and I am (reluctantly) considering removing it (more precisely: leaving call/cc and dynamic-wind out when TinyScheme is compiled for scripting use). I would be very interested in discussion and advice on this point, since I don't want to walk any further away from conformance than is necessary.
