Thank you!  Much nicer than before, both in looks and code-wise and
also documentation-wise.  This was much effort.

Shall I push your commit and afterwards redirect the old video URLs in
maintenance.git?

I don’t know the plan for further videos and if forcing reverse
chronological order will be useful someday.

Yes, switching from .png to .webp seems appropriate, even if it is
unsupported on old still-supported macOS versions or ReactOS or such
things, because they cannot playback the .webm videos anyway, I think.

“#:use-module (srfi srfi-1)“ can be removed.

OK.  If SHTML is needed someday it can be re-added.


LGTM!  Thank you again.
