True, the whole security concern complicates matters. But in the simple cases I have (teaching purposes, URL local to the CS dept, etc.) that's no more worrying than posting a rkt file on a forum and ask students to download it and require it. But that would be simpler, and would allow for posting updates "transparently". >> I know that the best option is a planet package, but that's a bit >> heavyweight for my current needs. > > Would be good to have PLaneT support multiple repositories, such as > organization- and project-specific ones. +1!! -- Éric _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/users
