Short version: Pollen will soon be dropping support for Rackets earlier than 6.3. If this is bothersome for some reason, now is the time to say so.
Long version: To date, Pollen (and associated libraries, like `txexpr` and `sugar` and `hypheneate`) have supported Racket 6.0 or later. This week, the Racket team added https to the Racket package server. This means it's no longer accessible to Racket 6.0 and 6.1 (which don't support fetching of packages through https) This also means, however, that the Travis CI builds for these versions won't work. Since that's how I confirm that Pollen works on earlier versions, it means I have to drop support for them in Pollen. I don't have to drop support for 6.2 necessarily. But if I'm going to drop some versions, I'd prefer to drop that one too. This means that in the coming weeks I will be introducing Pollen 2.0, which will require Racket 6.3 or above. The 2.0 designation is needed because this update is not backward compatible. It does not signal any deeper changes. It will however allow me to delete some cruft that was necessary to support the older versions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pollen" group.
