[Apologies if you get duplicates of this message.]

This message is being posted to various lists to inform members of the
Scheme community on the activities of the Scheme Language Steering
Committee which is overseeing the process of Scheme language
evolution.

A website has been setup to publish various documents pertaining to
our activities.  The steering committee will be presenting and
discussing these documents at the Scheme workshop on August 22.  Our
hope is that by publishing them now, a more fruitful question period
will ensue at the workshop.

The website URL is: http://www.scheme-reports.org/

The documents being published today are:

1) The amended Scheme Language Steering Committee charter.

2) The steering committee's position statement on Scheme language
    evolution.

3) A draft of the working group meta charter, that describes how
    working groups are run.

4) A draft of the charter for working group 1, which will
    be involved in the elaboration of a specification for
    a "small" Scheme language.

5) A draft of the charter for working group 2, which will
    be involved in the elaboration of a specification for
    a "large" Scheme language.

If you would like to comment on these documents, we urge you to come
to the Scheme workshop and/or to send email to the steering committee
at this address: sc at scheme-reports.org .
