Scheme Weekly News for 2003-03-31

        Aside: when all else fails, curse, swear and fall back to the
        version of the publishing system that you know works.
        [Translation: the promised goodies will be later.]

        This is a round-up of news and announcements related to the
        Scheme programming language, mostly taken from newsgroups,
        mailing lists and web sites that I'm aware of.  Feel free to
        send me more.  The aim is to publish in multiple formats on the
        web each week, but more on that very soon.  (Date: 2003-03-31)
