My own test suite passes well and even somewhat faster than the build of some weeks ago. </DIV> <DIV>A minor point: when opening from DrScheme an .ss file saved by the new version and containing one single module, the language is, as before, always set to (module ...), which is nice, but other settings are reset to the language defaults, like before too. It does not bother me, but your remark above gave me the impression that the settings would be the same as when the file was saved.</DIV> <DIV>Let me emphasize that PLT Scheme and its team are great.</DIV> <DIV>Regards, Jos</DIV></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV>* The default build, and the distributed installers use the 3m precise<BR>  garbage collector.<BR><BR>* The unit system is completely new, and backward incompatible with<BR>  v360 and earlier.  There are libraries that provide the old<BR>  functionality as a quick upgrading solution.<BR><BR>Your help and feedback in testing this new release candidate would be<BR>much appreciated.<BR>-- <BR>          ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x)))          Eli Barzilay:<BR>                  <A href="http://www.barzilay.org/">http://www.barzilay.org/</A>                 Maze is Life!<BR>_________________________________________________<BR>  For list-related administrative tasks:<BR>  <A href="http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-scheme">http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-scheme</A><BR></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
