That would be a good approach. However, the chicken-setup part is not
so simple. chicken-setup fetches eggs using HTTP from
www.call-with-current-continuation.org. The svn repository is hosted
at chicken.wiki.br; eggs are uploaded to call/cc.org preiodically.
So, it seems to me that there are two main alternatives:
1. uploading multiple versions of eggs to call/cc.org (I don't know
its disk space restrictions). chicken.wiki.br's machine (aka
galinha) is available for making eggs available, of course (and for
whatever chicken-related job), in case disk space on call/cc.org is
a problem.
2. make chicken-setup act as an svn client to access the eggs
repository directly. Don't know how difficult it would be.
Best wishes,
Mario
