+ "Cyclone Scheme is a brand-new compiler that allows real-world application
+development using the R7RS Scheme Language standard.
+
+Cyclone's runtime uses Cheney on the MTA to implement full tail recursion,
+continuations, multiple native threads, and generational garbage collection.
+The on-the-fly garbage collector manages the second-generation heap and
+performs major collections without 'stopping the world'.")
