(BTW, there's a file/private/octree-quantize which should move to where file/gif is.)

This doesn't make sense if things at such a small size turn to packages. It's true that a package is a unit of utility for end users, but it's also a unit of developement. IMO there are far better things to move out -- things that are bigger (in size and complexity) like (on a brief scan) contracts, gui, match, places, units, json, planet, xml, net, help.[*] > Think of someone deploying a game on a phone: would they be happy > with your rationale influencing their app's size? I think that errortrace has been one of the biggest offenders in terms of bad bugs of many varieties -- and moving it out won't help. (And if I were doing a game on a phone I'd worry about any of the above much more, btw.) -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://barzilay.org/ Maze is Life! _________________________ Racket Developers list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/dev
