+ <longdescription>
+ Fibers is a Guile library that implements a a lightweight concurrency
+ facility, inspired by systems like Concurrent ML, Go, and Erlang. A fiber
+ is like a "goroutine" from the Go language: a lightweight thread-like
+ abstraction. Systems built with Fibers can scale up to millions of
+ concurrent fibers, tens of thousands of concurrent socket connections, and
+ many parallel cores. The Fibers library also provides Concurrent ML-like
+ channels for communication between fibers.
