I figured it would be that, but I've been away from the scheme community
for a while (year or two) and came back just after r6rs was ratified. I've
read r6rs a few times at this point, but figured I'd better check on
whether or not the old conventions still applied.

:)

Like I said, since the r6rs library system gives us a mechanism for
adding a prefix to something, I figured I'd better ask first when making
my library. Personally, I have no opinion one way or the other.  I just
want to write something in the line of what other people write.

I appreciate your time.

Thank you.
