Great, welcome aboard! It's always exciting to get things done faster.

You have much more background for thinking about query performance than 
I do, so all suggestions are warmly welcome.

I don't understand what any of that means :)

Current repo here: <https://github.com/lassik/graphql-chicken>.

We should find some communication channels so we don't spam 
chicken-users too much. I suggest we talk on the schemeweb mailing list 
(https://srfi.schemers.org/scheme-lists-subscribe.html). It aims to 
develop a portable Scheme web stack, so a GraphQL implementation would 
fit right in. It's very low-traffic ATM, so maybe more traffic would 
inspire more people to hack on web projects :) I personally like GitHub 
issues as well. Private email is fine. I don't normally use IRC but I can.
