I left the web-server bullet alone, since you have new text from Jay,
but here's a suggestion for the rest.
PLT Scheme version 4.2 is now available from
http://plt-scheme.org/
Internally, this version includes a conversion from C++ to Scheme for
part
I haven't investigated, but I have a guess. When a planet package A
depends on another planet package B, then trying to compile A triggers
an install of B. As the docs for B build, the search and master index
are re-built, and that's where the time goes. Then the build of A
continues, and again
I think PLaneT does indeed work that way. Even worse, there is a bug
somewhere that causes CM to not compile package B (or C or D ...)
making things even worse. I got as far as figuring out that it was a
parameter that changed (I think it was the namespace?) that somehow
causes CM to disable
The final announcement that I have now is below.
