Great initiative. Shows how important it is to have a way for people to download the underlying data.

Thanks for your quick reply!

 

I contacted Anton in 2017 and wrote back that he'd try to dig up a zip of the cookbook,

 

I haven't got any plans for the Cookbook.

We managed to scrape a version of the cookbook from the Wayback Machine (i.e. web.archive.org): https://github.com/schemedoc/cookbook

We didn't do anything with it yet (except put up that Git repo) since we are unsure of the licensing situation. According to our best understanding, the Cookbook states that individual pages licensed under LGPL but the collection of all pages together is All Rights Reserved. In order to refresh the cookbook to match current Scheme and to expand it, we'd need the collection to be under a standard license. (None of us are license experts, so we don't know whether an open source license for code, one of the Creative Commons licenses, or something else would be best. We also don't understand the copyright issues around code samples - if you copy a small bit of code from a cookbook into your program, do you need to do something in particular to abide by a license?)

Besides  Anton and Neil van Dyke - I think Noel Welsh also participated.
