[PRL] [plt-internal] Video of Clojure talk

[Shriram Krishnamurthi]

John Rose!  He was one of the architects of the Scheme/C interface on
the Xerox PARC Portable Common Runtime (which spawned conservative
GC).  So at least he knows what he's talking about.

Rose says

  small-scale continuation-like structures might also be the right way
to make coroutines (generators, fibers, etc.)

Anyone got a quick summary of what a "fiber" is and where it comes from?
