I'm excited to have a look but I have 0 knowledge of the code base (and
am just learning Scheme although that's probably not an issue in this
case whatsoever). Do you have any advice for specific
documentation/files (other than README and HACKING) that I should read
if I were to attempt this? As well as which branch to base my changes onto.

Daniel
