Arthur A. Gleckler scripsit:

> In <11. Bytes objects>, I suggest using the term "byte-vector"
> instead of "bytes." A plural name for the type will lead to
> confusion and is inconsistent with the names used for all other
> Scheme types. Even if "byte-vector" isn't chosen, please consider a
> singular name. I'd much rather say "two byte-vectors" instead of
> "two byteses" or "two objects of type bytes" or the ambiguous "two
> bytes."
