Thanks for the comments, Noel.

I think the keyword argument method is a mistake. It seems you'd have
to do a lot of checking in the test macro to make sure the user
doesn't specify non-sensical parameters. E.g. if I specify #:exn and

A few months ago I was looking at a job posting that had a several

I think such things can be hugely motivating!
Although not as puzzley as pythonchallenge, recently I've been hearing
some buzz about Clojure's puzzle intro site called 4clojure.com. All
the "puzzles" are just fill in the blank programming problems.

We'll see. I've set out my stall, more or less. There is a reasonably
detailed plan and t
Some quick notes:
Generally good. Certainly cuts down on some of the crap that Rackunit
/ Schemeunit requires while being more comprehensible than eli-tester.

Actually, you can visit the root of the project at this link:
https://github.com/bl
I believe I've visited it a few times in the past. Very nice, and has many
things i'd like to achieve, some characteristics that I'm trying avoid, but
most of all a bit different in profile. I'm hoping to bring something new
and complementory, not just another copy.

For the most part, getting rid of units in net is straightforward.
However, I'm not sure what people have in mind for the tcp^ sig.
1) net/tcp-redirect provides a single function, tcp-redirect, which
returns a unit implementing tcp^. Is there a consensus on what to do
with this function? Remove it

Writing books is hard from what I hear.
Lot of Racketeers individually want to do it.
Perhaps there is an opportunity for collaboration?

It looks like many of the puzzles require python-specific libraries,
of which there's no Racket equivalent. Something to add to the Racket
task list?
