I always hate to start fresh. However, some of the things that SCSH was
trying to provide are now available via SRFI implementations.

I would start with a Scheme that has a development community active
enough to have provided many SRFI implementations. I'd then focus on
what is missing from the world of SRFI's but present in SCSH and try to
port over various orthogonal subsets of scsh as needed.

However, I'm not active enough in the Scheme community anymore to even
know what active Scheme communities might exist, if any. :)
