There's not much that's obviously missing anymore, it's mostly rough
edges as you said. The list at https://wiki.call-cc.org/r7rs-tasks#todo
is up to date.

Actually, the most important todo is probably documentation of the
gotchas/limitations/interplay between the egg and core that aren't
obvious from that list, e.g. `(import (foo bar))` doesn't load code
from ./foo/bar.scm (or ".sld" as seems to have become common), one must
`(import-for-syntax (r7rs))` to get R7RS's syntax-rules, and so on. But,
overall, I'd be fine with releasing it with such disclaimers just so
people can start hacking at it.

Cheers,

Evan
