I voted "yes".   Here is what I offered as a comment with my vote:

   Well, it's not terribly clever of me but I will steal
   a quote that J.H. Conway uses in the preface to 'On
   Numbers and Games' from Bunyan's 'Apology for his Book
   (Pilgrim's Progress):

       Some said 'John, print it'; others said 'Not so.'
       Some said 'It might do good'; others said 'No.'

  It will be a waste of time to drag out discussion of the
  draft much longer and, even for all the objections raised,
  'it might do good.'   Meanwhile, if there is long-term
  substance to the dissent, I am hopeful that that that
  dissent can gracefully congeal in and exploit the SRFI
  process to evolve things beyond the current draft.

  If it seems I'm saying 'Sigh.  It'll do I guess.  Good
  enough,' well, I suppose I am.   That's not feint praise,
  though -- not for R_RS.


-t

p.s.: or is that supposed to be "faint praise"?  Oh well.
