Some suggested items below, if you have items, please mail me text
that describes those that you think should be mentioned, and verify
that the rest should not.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Matthew:
* sha1 functionality (default from openssl, also a racket
implementation)
* `racket/foreign' (or `scheme/foreign') + `unsafe!' moved to
`ffi/unsafe', more ffi reorganization (mostly 4acba84b,
b7c18463)
* Maybe also `struct' and related changes (new definition, struct
name as the constructor)?
* async-apply support in the FFI. (768a3721)
* full continuations can escape past a continuation barrier
(49ad3096)
* internal-definition contexts allow expressions mixed with
definitions; the new `#%stratified-body' form can be used for
bodies without this feature. (54216b5c)
* New subprocess support in custodians
(`current-subprocess-custodian-mode',
`subprocess-group-enabled')
* Additional flonum operations with unsafe variants.
* The racket value printer uses constructor+quote style; update
Guide and Quick.
* `in-directory'.
* `racket/set'.
* Improved regexp stuff?
* Chaperones (73807aef)
* (an extensible) `raco' replaces setup-plt, mzc, etc.
* `eprintf' and `displayln'
Kevin:
* Parallel build
Sam/Vincent:
* Types for fixnums, flonums, etc? Anything else?
Robby:
* radial-star? flipping bitmaps?
Jay:
* Datalog, Racklog, sexper variant of first, prolog variant of
second.
* `formlet*'? (Maybe also 7b61ba02?)
* Teaching language extensions, if they're included in the release
(possibly only for the edu message)
Ryan:
* Any public (and documented) syntax/parse & macro debugger
additions?
* macro-debugger/emit?
* GUI for rackunit?
Casey:
* Redex news?
Eli:
* `generator' required to be (generator () body ...), due to
planned extensions.
Stevie:
* Contract news? (eg, a57b0d81, 24c5a9ae, 99bb46d2)
[Note that mirror sites can take a while to catch up with the new
downloads.]
