[plt-dev] Fwd: [plt-scheme] Download links in PLaneT

Well, after some more thought, I've decided I was being stupid. I've
checked (essentially) your patch (revision 16521 in SVN). If I sort
out some other superduperfancydancy thing in the future, I'll be sure
to let you know.

Sorry for the wait and I hope you've not lost steam.
