Suggestion: list significant changes from R6RS as well.  Also provide a
rationale for R7's rebase to R5 somewhere.  Otherwise it just looks
weird.

   Scheme 2011 is the latest in a long line of revised reports on
   Scheme.  It aims to incorporate the best elements of both previous
   standards, R5RS and R6RS, while maintaining a minimal,
   backwards-compatible core.  Here we list the major enhancements that
   Scheme 2011 has over R5RS Scheme, while also documenting the
   differences from the more ambitious R6RS standard.
