And when John brought up the issue of properly backing up such a database, well, one Git repo is not enough, nor is it ideal for a raw database. I thought I'd offer to facilitate and fund a reliable place to backup all sorts of smallish Scheme standards, I'm ... really hard core about backups, e.g. a few hours ago I finished this months' full backup to LTO tapes. You were CC'ed because you at minimum would also have full access to this account, to avoid things like a repeat of the R6RS process data loss, and would likely have other useful things to backup to a rsync.net minimum 500GB size account.

Aha, I see. Thank you. That makes sense. So the database of record would be a Git repository holding the "master source," and that would be dumped into a database suitable for querying periodically, which would in turn be backed up by something like rsync.net. That sounds practical.
