Just noticed that Redhat's OpenShift (their cloud thingy) has released a
DIY v0.1 cartrige to their PAAS offering.  You can run up to 3 applications
free and while it's not official, they have specifically said that they
intend have a free offering indefinitely.

The DIY offering has all the machinery to create a Racket cartridge.  They
already have a JBoss,Ruby,Python, JSNode offerings.

Conceptually you write your code, then using git push the code, and use the
console to launch it using the Racket (webserver) cartridge or some sort of
SIGHUP your server to load the new code etc.

The DIY offering is pretty new with limited doc.

I'll create a github project and post it this evening if anyone wants to
assist in creating a Racket Cartridge for OpenShift.
