Announcement: Scheme Pet Store

I would like to announce the availability of the Scheme Pet Store, a version

of the Java Pet Store, written in Scheme. This application demonstrates

the creation of a non-trivial, e-commerce-based web application in Scheme.

The application is written using the SISCweb framework and can be hosted

in any J2EE compliant web container.

As it stands now, the Scheme Pet Store is a proof of concept that

demonstrates that Scheme is an ideal language for writing web applications. With

sufficient feedback from the Scheme community, this application can be improved

to the point where it could be thought of as a reference application.
