Hi,

In many projects I've been= copying G=C3=B6ran Weinholt's base64 implementation and I've also = seen it in other projects, would it make sense to include it in Guile's= standard library?

I guess it's hard to know where= to draw a line and different languages do different things. I actually lik= e Golang's approach where they provide a bunch of base libraries (web, = crypto, etc.) and it seems that's where Guile was going by including=C2= =A0a web library.You could always use a different implementation if it exis= ted.

Anyways, I think (ice-9 base64) would be a nice a= ddition.

Just a thought.

Aleix
