Thanks for the nicely written summary. Sounds like an interesting project. I haven’t written any Scheme in a long time, although I’ve worked with R a lot (which is actually kind of lisp-y internally anyway). I messed around with Clojure in the past, but I didn’t use it for anything serious. I think it’s cool when older programming languages get revised and refreshed.

Internet2 actually has existed since 1997. It’s like a series of private connections between universities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2

I had this phone. It was great. I really miss tactile keyboard keys.
