Found them!  Thanks.  In the User Manual no less!

Sorry to be random.  I hit the first link on the homepage, "9.0.1",
and saw

    Index of /gnu/mit-scheme/stable.pkg/9.0.1

    Name                                 Last modified      Size  ...

    mit-scheme-9.0.1-doc-html.tar.gz.sig 09-Mar-2010 23:33   72   

and clicked away as usual.  I eventually got back to the homepage and
tried the next link, to the release notes.  Poking around in the
tarball itself (changelog.txt, src/README.txt) was no help either.
Now I am down in the Download section and the installation
instructions are... hard to miss. :-}

Can I punt the link/table in the "Release status..." section?  And
put the liarc build instructions in the User Manual?  And put a note
in src/README.txt for the luser/installer/non-developer?

The homepage looks nice.

How do I get notified of new releases?  I TRY to keep up, but it is
almost 2 weeks on!  I am subscribed, NOW, to some new-fangled "RSS
feed" via a "Live Bookmark", but that looks like the only "push"
channel.  Did I miss an email to the mit-scheme-announce list?
