    Yes. One more -- the first (only?) Scheme written in Haskell, Husk, started in 2010 (which is the data of the commit for the first entry, "Initial version", in the Changelog)

    Might be controversial? But I think an idea for one of the coolestsystems in my mind is a core engine in Haskell and Husk (R7RS Scheme) on top of it! You could write a verified core with a fun language on top for data, NPC scripting, etc. Sounds like a fun project, good luck!

    Kawa (like Clojure) runs on the JavaVM, but has a longer pedigree (from 1996), good compatibility with standard Scehemes (including R7RS), and has a stronger emphasis on performance: It has optional types and semi-decent type inferance so it is easy to write code as performant as Java. It also has fast startup, and is unopinonated on how you run and bundle applications: it generates pretty vanilla class files that interoperate with Java easily.

    Kawa is quite relevant, and it seems that the project started in 1996. Still actively maintained.
