+Kali Scheme is currently an abandoned? project started by Nec Research
+Institute.
+It is based upon Scheme
+48 . Currently the active
+development branch can be found at the
+arch repository. At this time it is recommened for you to use the
+stable version in the tarball. If you would
+like to contribute contact me at zitterbewegung (at) gmail (dot) com or
+on freenode
+in #scheme.

+Kali Scheme is a distributed implementation of Scheme that permits efficient transmission of higher-order objects such as closures and -continuations. The integration of distributed communication +continuations. The integration of distributed communication facilities within a higher-order programming language engenders a number of new abstractions and paradigms for distributed computing. Among these are user-specified load-balancing and migration policies for threads, incrementally-linked distributed computations, and -parameterized client-server applications. - -Kali Scheme supports concurrency and communication using first-class -procedures and continuations. It integrates procedures and continuations -into a message-based distributed framework that allows any Scheme object -(including code vectors) to be sent and received in a message.
