A cookbook is a very good idea. Thanks for offering to take on the job!

There's an old one called the Schematics Scheme Cookbook. We have a
mirror of it here: https://github.com/schemedoc/cookbook

It would be good to use it as a basis for a bigger, up-to-date cookbook.
However, we've had trouble clearing up its license. Its authors are
somewhat hard to reach nowadays.

A cookbook is almost useless if people need to add a big license notice
into their code whenever they copy a bit from there. We should figure
out how have the examples under a license (e.g. public domain
equivalent) that doesn't mandate people to add a notice.

I think this is a good plan. Jakub, I've invited you to the schemedoc
organization on GitHub; feel free to add anything you need and ask
questions if you get stuck. There are now 11 members there.

I'm fine with a cookbook subdomain, or we could put it under the
doc.scheme.org subdomain; I'll defer the decision to others.

> We already tried :)

The cookbook project previously stalled because we couldn't reach the
guy who knew all about the license. We should try again.

IMHO the best way to contribute is for everyone to work on something
they're interested in. That's the way to get good work done fast. If
Jakub is most interested in a cookbook, it's something that would
definitely help a lot.

We have a lot of mundane maintenance tasks too, so if anyone wants to do
something not-particularly-fun for Scheme, would be very welcome.

Planet Scheme is nice, but at the moment Scheme could really use more of
basically everything - more code, docs, web pages, essays, people... So
there's a lot of room for different interests.
