Oldest Scheme Implementations
STklos was indeed born in 2001, but it was the successor of Stk, which is much older. Its first release was in 1993. As far as I know, STkos did use code from STk, so I'm not sure one couldn't say it was born in 1993, as "STk".

Most readable Scheme implementation
That said, I'd just like to mention that I have made an effort to write internals documentation ( general: "hacking", bytecode: "vm") to STklos. It's an interesting implementation because it's easy to add primitives and change the compiler. The internals of the VM is actually a bit more complex... But it's really interesting code.
- STklos 1.70 was released

August 2021 - What are you up to schemers ?
I've been working on enhancing STklos' macro system. The idea is to implement `syntax-case` properly and use it to obtain a better implementation of `syntax-rules` (the one in STklos is quite old and has some issues).

STklos 1.60 released
SRFI 143 has already been accepted, and there are recent pull requests for 170, 215, 217! :)
