Re: [racket-dev] Release Announcement for v6.7

2016-10-19 Thread Vincent St-Amour 
A complete announcement draft is below. Comments welcome.

Vincent



- Racket supports building graphical applications on Android, via the
  racket-android project: https://github.com/jeapostrophe/racket-android

- The Racket REPL comes with line-editing, command and result history,
  and various meta-commands out of the box. See the `xrepl` documentation
  for details.

- The package system supports installing Git packages that require
  authentication when using the HTTP or HTTPS protocols by setting the
  `raco pkg config git-checkout-credentials` configuration option.

- The "--enable-ffipoll" option causes Racket to block before FFI calls
  until the embedding program explicitly completes those calls. This is
  used, for instance, in the Android port to ensure that OpenGL calls
  originate from the appropriate thread even when Racket is executing in
  a different thread.

- HTTP libraries, including raco pkg, support proxying via HTTP CONNECT.

- Typed Racket provides typed versions of `racket/os` and
  `racket/db/sqlite`.

- Racket requires `racket/interactive` on start-up in interactive mode,
  and the `racket/interactive` module is responsible for loading
  ".racketrc" as well as `xrepl`. See the docs on `racket/interactive`
  for more information.

- The `PLT_COMPILED_FILE_CHECK` environment variable controls whether
  modify dates are checked on ".zo" files. Set the environment variable
  to "exists" to use a ".zo" file when it exists, independent of its
  modification date.

- Typing "H:" on the search page returns all #langs and typing "R:"
  returns all reader modules (just like "L:" returns all modules).

- The file/glob modules implements globbing for path-strings.

- Optimizations in the bytecode compiler improve performance for
  structure, list, string, and byte-string operations.

How about combining the two bullets?

* Optimizations in the bytecode compiler improve performance for
  structure, list, string, and byte-string operations.

Re: [racket-dev] Release Announcement for v6.7

2016-10-16 Thread Vincent St-Amour 
After some off-list discussion (my bad! accidentally dropped the CC),
Jay and I decided to include this bullet:

* Racket supports building graphical applications on Android, via the
  racket-android project: https://github.com/jeapostrophe/racket-android

* The Racket optimizer detects more optimization opportunities,
  including procedures that operate on lists, strings and byte strings.

This is not an exact description, but it's close enough.
Perhaps it should be redacted to be more similar to the bullet written
by Mathew ("Optimizations in the bytecode compiler ...") because the
changes are in the same step of the compilation.

It's the former, from "working + warning" to "working no warning", so not very 
worth mentioning.

Right. I do remember some talk of the changes in 6.6 being a stepping
stone to further changes in 6.7. Was that the case?

Was that change from "working + warning" to "working no warning", or
from "working + warning" to "error"?

If it's the former, it's probably not worth mentioning. If it's the
latter, it definitely is.

The package system supports installing Git packages that require
authentication when using the HTTP or HTTPS protocols by setting the
`raco pkg config git-checkout-credentials` configuration option.

Typing "H:" on the search page returns all #langs and typing "R:" returns
all reader modules (just like "L:" returns all modules).

The file/glob modules implements globbing for path-strings.

The "--enable-ffipoll" option causes Racket to block before FFI calls
until the embedding program explicitly completes those calls. This is
used, for instance, in the Android port to ensure that OpenGL calls
originate from the appropriate thread even when Racket is executing in
a different thread.

HTTP libraries, including raco pkg, support proxying via HTTP CONNECT.

These seem too minor.

Maybe worth mentioning:

 * Optimizations in the bytecode compiler improve performance for
   structure operations.

Probably worth mentioning, since it can help with a common annoyance:

 * The `PLT_COMPILED_FILE_CHECK` environment variable controls whether
   modify dates are checked on ".zo" files. Set the environment
   variable to "exists" to use a ".zo" file when it exists, independent
   of its modification date.

Besides the xrepl bullet, which I'll leave to Leif, maybe the
announcement should include a note on `racket/interactive`:

 * Racket requires `racket/interactive` on start-up in interactive
   mode, and the `racket/interactive` module is responsible for loading
   ".racketrc" as well as `xrepl`. See the docs on `racket/interactive`
   for more information.

I don't think any of the things listed by my name are worth including
