	Where did May go?  Who knows, who cares?  I took a few weeks
	off of SWN to organise AFFSAC and then was catching up with
	other things for a few more weeks.  I'll let you know if I'm
	going to do that again.  Thanks to everyone who presented at
	AFFSAC -- I know some of you read this.

	This is a round-up of news and announcements related to the
	Scheme programming language, mostly taken from newsgroups,
	mailing lists and web sites that I'm aware of.	Feel free to
	send me more.  The aim is to publish in multiple formats on the
	web each week, but more on that very soon.  (Date: 2003-06-02)
