I've just published draft #2 of SRFI 181.  It was submitted by John Cowan, author of the SRFI.

https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-181/

Here are John's comments on the draft:

• Adds binary and textual input/output ports.
• Allows implementations of textual ports to pass either strings or vectors of characters to the read! and write! procedures.
• Removes the nonsense about what write! should do if given a count of 0.
• Removes redundant explanations of arguments shared between the procedures.
• Editorial improvements, including removing some remaining R6RS cruft.

Here is the commit summary:

• Switch to ISO dates.
• Write authors consistently.  Write <based-on>.
• Apply changes from John Cowan.
• Remove empty <p> elements.
• Publish second draft.

Here's the diff:
