Scheme on Skis? Like Lisp on Lines or Ruby on Rails

database-backed CGI applications are sweeping the web, with
Ruby on Rails getting the first large popularity of this
generation. I'm sure many readers of this group think that our
favourite Scheme could make this even easier and it would help
those times when we can't put a PLT or SISC webserver into play.
So far, I've read a bit about Lisp on Lines but found no code.
Is there anything in Scheme yet and how do we help develop it?
Thanks in advance for any comments.

translations of Japanese by babelfish? Then Kahua is for you.

I find that http://www.excite.co.jp/world/english/web/ works well enough.
Kahua uses a CGI, but it looks like that CGI communicates with
a server. If I can run a server, I could use Kahua or SISC-web
or PLT's server. It looks interesting and it's nice to have
more options, although it doesn't solve the posted problem.
Thanks,

FWIW SISCweb runs on a J2EE server, which is often provided with mid to
high end web hosting services. It doesn't require running a separate
server.

The lisp-on-lines darcs archive is available here :
http://versions.tech.coop/lisp-on-lines/
There are some (poor) docs in the doc/ directory. You can google for
'lisp-on-lines' to see an example at paste.lisp.org and some of the
random noise about LoL that has turned up around the internet.
Its being used in production, but may not be ready for wider
consumption... I do plan a release before the end of summer.
LoL was developed in UncommonWeb, which is a CPS based framework, so
doing something similar in scheme would not be too hard at all :)
