(details: pre-compiled .zo and .dep files are now in the architecture dependent "racket" package instead of the "racket-common" package) There might be a higher chance than usual of breakage because of the major version change.

Re: [racket-users] Sticky scrollable nav bar in docs
"sticky" looks worse to me on that example page --- I have to scroll
to the bottom of all the set docs before I can read the navbar

Re: [racket-users] Sticky scrollable nav bar in docs
I agree this is a useful improvement. I would consider using "position:
sticky" instead of "position: fixed" as that is generally less
"intrusive" to the layout and doesn't create a need for a second scroll
bar (the element would scroll as needed with the main scrollbar, but
still be sticky in the sense that it would keep itself within the
viewport).

[racket-users] [Funny] Package server registration/reset email code flow changed
Funny. Thus message about Racket paskages arrived immediately after a message from the post office ttiled: Tips for receiving and sending packages telling me how to register an alternative package destination in case I'm no thome. So when I got this message, titled Package server registration/reset email code flow changed my immediate reaction was, No! they don't mean that kind of packages. -- hendrik On Thu, Feb 18, 2021 at 08:48:56PM +0100, Tony Garnock-Jones wrote: > Hi all, > > Just to let you know I updated the package server to have a slightly > different flow for password resets and account registrations, for spam > prevention reasons.

[racket-users] Re: changing my email address on the package server?
We should* eventually decouple email from account-identity, so that after an *initial* introduction to the system, changing one's email address is straightforward to do. But we haven't done that yet and I don't have time to do it anytime soon, I'm afraid. So I think Jay's offer of a manual database rewrite is the way to go :-) Tony On Thursday, December 10, 2020 at 6:44:41 AM UTC+1 je...@lisp.sh wrote: > Is it possible to change my email address on the package server?

Hi all, Just to let you know I updated the package server to have a slightly different flow for password resets and account registrations, for spam prevention reasons.

This seems like it would be a nice addition. I think starting with a
PR is the right place to begin.

It's simpler, and you can switch to Typed Racket a module at a time at a later date if you find the need.
