I read the SRFIs, with special focus on the procedures they define, and
took my best guess.
I cannot actually give them the realworld testing they deserve. That’s
something I could only do for the old SRFIs, namely 1, 9, 11, 27, 37,
42, 43, 60, 64, and 119.
Those are the ones I already used (based on grepping the imports in my
projects).
Best wishes,
Arne
