Datalog - A lightweight deductive database system with Racket integration is available in the `datalog' package and with `#lang datalog'. Racklog - Prolog-style logic programming in Racket, adapted from the Schelog package, is in the core > > * `formlet*'? (Maybe also 7b61ba02?) web-server/formlets adds a 'formlet*' form that allows dynamic formlet construction, as opposed to 'formlet' which requires syntactic Xexprs and static formlets. A few new library formlets are available as well. > > * Teaching language extensions, if they're included in the release > (possibly only for the edu message) The Advanced Student Language now supports hash-table primitives, `define-datatype' for defining sets of related structs, and `match' for pattern matching. > > 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?
