alternative here is to call this Continuation Frame

I like it -- LGTM

Sorry, missed this notification until now! I took a look and generally the definitions are understandable to me -- here are some thoughts/questions:

• Something I'm confused by is that it seems like the word Point is overloaded here -- though it seems clear to me that Continuation Point refers to a function, Link Point and Ready Point refer to points in program execution, so not necessarily a function? Do they refer to specific statements, or call sites, instead? (I think the concept of continuation points could use a word other than "point")
• Is my understanding correct that with the exception of the main program body, execution frames should be identifiable by a corresponding function?
• IIUC, "ready" is the new word for "causal context". If so this is definitely an improvement because that makes it easier to prevent misstatements :)

Yes, you're absolutely right here. I wanted to update to a different name, but couldn't come up w/ anything that resonated. I'm open to suggestions here.

Continuation Point refers to a function, Link Point and Ready Point refer to points in program execution, so not necessarily a function?

Yes, exactly. Contnuation Point is a function that takes a Continuation as a parameter, and Link Point/Ready Point are points in program execution.

Is my understanding correct that with the exception of the main program body, execution frames should be identifiable by a corresponding function?

An Execution Frame is a specific invocation of a Continuation. It is possible for an Continuation to be invoked multiple times, resulting in multiple Execution Frames.

IIUC, "ready" is the new word for "causal context".

Yup. :)

That makes sense -- this would be helpful as part of the definition!
