We have decided to expand the Scheme Language Steering Committee from 3 to 5 members. Using the results of the election just held, we are adding Olin Shivers and Chris Hanson to the committee. Olin and Chris have agreed to serve, and are already serving ex officio. Before we can add Olin and Chris as official members of the committee, we will have to amend the charter [2,3]. We are also considering other changes to the charter, such as removing or modifying the prohibition against members of the steering committee serving as editors, removing the R6RS-specific goals, and changing other details of the process. We are looking into various mechanisms for keeping the Scheme community informed of our progress and involved in the process. We hope to announce the details in the coming weeks.
