Kahua is CPS, Continuation Passing Style application framework written
in one of scheme implementation, Gauche.

CPS has following advantages.

- You can use "Continuation" easily so you can resolve the typical Web
  Applicaiton's problem of process disconnection.
- You can program declaratively by using S-expressions as fundamental
  data type.
- You can use Kahua's Object Database to permanent data by itself.
- You can modify the function being run and it supports incremental
  development.

useful tools for daily work.  See http://practical-scheme.net/gauche/
