I just read the article by Matt that was posted on Hacker News (http://felleisen.org/matthias/OnHtDP/index.html) and I wanted to take the time to thank you all in the PLT/Racket team.
Thank you for trying (and achieving!) to bring a new approach to teaching computer science. Improving teaching methods is a hard process and you have the courage and will to fight for it, against all odds. I'm glad some people are here to train students into a broader approach to program design and eventually become way better programmers than we are. I discovered Racket one year ago and had the feeling I finally found the language, and most importantly the community, that brings me hope and make me feel like computer science is more than just about computers. You are making a language that feels like writing code is actually a form of art sometimes, and it makes me see my profession with a new eye. (define congrats (map thank plt-team)) I wish all of you a great time teaching with Racket. I'll be sticking around improving some libs (especially web-server). See you around folks :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
