These are the editorial corrections to the ninth draft in reverse order.  All are present in the tenth (post-ballot) draft.

* Corrected commenters' names
* Changed rationale of `eqv?` to be normative
* Improved language stating when inexact numbers are not `eqv?`
* Cleaned up bibliography to include only cited works, including SRFIs
* Added grammar for `case-lambda` to tail-recursion section
* Warning about <init>s was incorrectly on `letrec` instead of `letrec*`
* Fixed minor editorial nits from a last-minute review
* Updated acknowledgements of commenters
* Rule out `xbeef` as a character name because it is a hex scalar value
* Restored R5RS results of `gen-counter` and `gen-loser`
* Cleaned up definition of "variable definition"
* Cleaned up zero-or-more values continuations language
* Falling off a `cond-expand` is now undefined behavior (no particular behavior was voted on)
* Minor typos fixed (thanks to Jussi Piitulainen)
* Corrected changes not to imply that character and string comparisons accept 0 or 1 arguments
* Added note about the order of arguments in R6RS vs. R7RS `bytevector-copy!`
* Restored reference to `eqv?` in the storage model (as opposed to "operational equivalence")
* Improved allocation discussion to handle empty objects specially
* Changed "as following" to "as follows"
* Cleaned up all cases of "forbidden in strings" to be uniform, removing redundant references
* Made the definitions of character comparisons defer to `char->integer` to handle non-Unicode
* Fixed quasiquotation and symbol-equality examples
* Removed procedure inequivalence from language changes list
* Squeezed vertical space to save a whole page
* Reverted to R5RS equivalence semantics for procedures (substantive change per WG unanimity)
* Removed "equal," from definition of `string<?` and friends
