Okay, I'm good with that.  Here's the text now:

Chicken is an optimizing batch compiler for the R5RS Scheme language.
It produces portable, efficient C supporting tail recursion, first-class
continuations, and lightweight threads.  Interfacing to and from C
is emphasized, including both static and dynamic loading of Chicken
code, with full support for Posix functions.  Chicken comes with a
reasonably fast interpreter for interactive use, debugging, and scripting.
Chicken also has a repository with hundreds of user-contributed "eggs",
including most SRFIs and many other widely available Scheme libraries.

Any further contributions?
