Here's what I have: - Single-precision floating-point number support is now enabled by default. Single-precision floats now print differently from their default double-precision counterparts, primitives to convert between or distinguish the two have been added, and reader syntax for single-precision specials is now available. - Typed Racket's numeric tower has been entirely overhauled. Typed Racket programs can now use more precise types than before, and check more numeric properties, such as sign or range properties. - Typed Racket's fixnum optimizations have been improved and should apply more broadly. - The performance of Typed Racket's typechecker has been improved. In particular, dispatch on large union types should typecheck much faster than before. - Scribble now supports figures with "here" placement for LaTeX output.
