We've just started docs on this one, but here's the initial thread:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.guile.devel/10232

Here's the docs from master (this link will probably vanish in a few
weeks):

  http://hydra.nixos.org/build/367041/download/2/guile.html/Nil.html#Nil

It's a little different since you last asked me about this; I took your
feedback into account, I think, but do let me know if we're missing
something.

I think it's good because Scheme or Elisp lists and booleans can be
passed back and forth, and traversing those lists or testing values for
truth Just Works(tm). Of course, there are a couple of pitfalls; these
are noted in the docs there.

Cheers,

Andy
