Well, mosh seems like an older program, having been begun by the R6RS
process in 2008; but I would concede that keithw/mosh probably has a
larger user base. As these rename issues can get thorny and mosh is
already in the archive in any case, I'll be willing to rename.
Hopefully the technical barriers will not be too hard to surmount.
Aside: CCing to both bugs to be safe. However, how should the
existing bugs be handled in this case? Simply rename the ITP and RFS
to 'mosh-scheme'?
Cheers,
