With all due respect. Was there a reason why parametric imports don't work? They do change behavior in a way that doesn't jive with the TR port-to-typed-without-change-in-semantics philosophy. On Jul 29, 2012, at 9:27 AM, stamo...@racket-lang.org wrote: stamourv has updated `master' from

Thanks, Doug. From talking with a few people, it sounds like 5.3 is shaping up pretty normally for a release, and the releases have been high-quality. I was just a little spooked by running into two bugs very quickly (two points determine a line, after all), but I haven't found any since

The Racket core distribution has already started deprecating the 'planet' command in favour of going through the 'raco' command and the 'planet' subcommand: raco planet ... rather than planet ... The current documentation does not refer to the 'planet' command at all. If users are still using

Maybe it would be good to have official support for safe 3D values. I realized after I wrote the `images/compile-time' module that it was just a special case. It could be extended to handle anything serializable. Having to serialize values at expansion time and unserialize them at runtime
