Why This Matters

The release of the Revised^7 Report on Scheme's procedural fascicle marks a significant step in consolidating and sharing foundational knowledge within the Scheme programming community. By openly licensing the document, it encourages widespread use and adaptation, fostering innovation and standardization in Scheme implementations. This open approach benefits both developers and learners by providing a comprehensive, accessible resource.

Key Takeaways

The editors of previous reports are listed as authors of this fascicle in recognition of the substantial portions of the text that are copied directly from previous reports. There is no intended implication that those editors, individually or collectively, support or do not support this fascicle.

We intend this report to belong to the entire Scheme community, and so we grant permission to copy it in whole or in part without fee. In particular, we encourage implementors of Scheme to use this report as a starting point for manuals and other documentation, modifying it as necessary. Note that some sections are adapted from sources with attribution requirements: see the legal section, if it exists, for specifics.
