The reason that we wanted to include this is that Vincent demo'd this feature at RacketCon; the sentence clarifies for anyone who saw or heard about this when it will be available, and that it isn't the version of the feature provided in 5.1.2. >> Unrelated to TR: >> - A high-level interface to Racket's logging facilities is now >> available in `unstable/logging'. > > So far there were no announcements about anything in `unstable', and I > like to keep it out of the very public announcements.

This is something that lots of people have asked for, and feedback from them on the interface would be useful while it's still in development. -- sam th [email protected] _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev
