>From “Organisation of this Manual”:
*Chapter 6: Guile API Reference*
This part of the manual documents the Guile API in
functionality-based groups with the Scheme and C interfaces
presented side by side.
*Chapter 7: Guile Modules*
Describes some important modules, distributed as part of the Guile
distribution, that extend the functionality provided by the Guile
Scheme core.
So I think the idea is for core functionality to be in Chapter 6, and
“peripheral things” to be in Chapter 7. The modules you mention would
fall in the second category, I think.

One week is not a lot. ;-)
