[racket-dev] XREPL and readline-6.*
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, just tried out XREPL and it turns out it complains about not finding libreadline.so.5: $ racket Welcome to Racket v5.2.0.7. (require xrepl) ; Warning: no readline support (ffi-lib: couldn't open libreadline.so.5 (libreadline.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)) - - that makes sense as my installed and the current upstream readline version is 6.2. Any chance that could be fixed?

[racket-dev] installing XREPL
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, XREPL is said to be able to edit your .racketrc in the docs, but apparently doesn't cope well with that file not existing yet: $ racket Welcome to Racket v5.2.0.7.

[racket-dev] Racket home page proposal
Hi all, Currently, the Racket home page is really nice, but it leaves a significant amount of vertical space unused that could be used to communicate information. How would people feel about adding more content below the fold on the website? To be more concrete about this, here's a mockup I made: http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/asumu/racket-home/ (should look fine on Firefox, Opera, and Chrome at least) Notably, it contains a twitter feed for @racketlang and entries from the blog. These might help to give the first impression that we're an active community. Cheers, Asumu _ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev

Don't let the Twitter and such dominate the page visually. Things like Twitter are for bringing people in, not sending them away or distracting once they're already at the page where we can tell them what we most want to tell them. 2. Don't use the Twitter, Facebook, etc. Web bugs. They already track individual's browsing behavior in detail across most Web sites, but Racket can be better than that, on principle. You can implement this in server-side Racket code. -- http://www.neilvandyke.org/ _ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev
