I like using GitHub for this (IIUC Bitbucket or GitLab would work equally well).
The Racket package catalog tracks a branch, say `master`. After you push a commit to `master`, the rkt pkg cat will notice automatically. It scans at intervals. (If you're impatient, sign in and choose "Refresh my packages". After which there is still some delay, but IIRC < 1 hour.) Having people submit Issues against the repo works well, I think, for both authors and users of a package. For example in your recent fixes to html-parsing, other people could see the report, any discussion, and better appreciate the change. Also, you can use magic phrases in your commit message, like "Closes #123". GitHub will automatically close the issue. Also it creates cross-links between issues and commits, which can be handy. I think all of GitHub, Bitbucket, and GitLab let you have unlimited public repos on the free plan. Last I checked, each also allows at least some number of private repos. I can't speak to migrating version histories. I know that for some Racket packages it's considered unnecessary to make official version numbers and release notes. The public commit and/or issue history on GitHub or whatever, is considered adequate. I'm typing this kind of in a rush so apologies if there are any errors or it's unclear. Hopefully others will chime in. The TL;DR is I _think_ you'll find GitHub et al to be <= friction than your status quo? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
