  Using SRFI-69 would cut out some of the alist boilerplate, and help with unexpected cornercases. And seeing Biwa Scheme makes me nervous - its an interpreter, not a compiler. That's both a perf and size overhead. Maybe it might benefit from something like Parenscript which compiles? Otherwise, great work on the huge mimetype list, and fibers looks really cool.

I need the datastructure to be persistent, maybe I will use fash in the next iteration cf. http://wingolog.org/pub/fash.scm http://wingolog.org/pub/fash.scm > And seeing Biwa Scheme makes me nervous - its an interpreter, not a compiler. Yes, I understand. Though I don't want to divert too much from scheme standard. The end goal is to run everything using GNU Guile. Tx!
