Checklist items for the v6.1.1 release (using the v6.1.0.900 release candidate build)
Search for your name to find relevant items, reply when you finish an item (please indicate which item/s is/are done). Also, if you have any commits that should have been picked, make sure that the changes are in. Important: new builds are created without announcement, usually whenever I pick a few commits. If you need to commit changes, please make sure you tell me to pick it into the release branch. --> Release candidates are at --> http://pre-release.racket-lang.org Please use these installers (or source bundles) -- don't test from your own git clone (don't test the `master' branch by mistake!).
