I wouldn't expect there to be more work than merging the occasional
(extremely simple) pull request.

But it'd be really nice if all these standards could be shared across
Lisp dialects. Every Lisp has dash-delimited-symbols and the data types
John has been collecting are not Scheme-specific either. Nor are the
S-expression and binary formats we are planning. This would be one of
the easiest opportunity to establish something cross-dialect. (The
adoption rate is anyone's guess, but that's true of most endeavors.)
