[plt-dev] Re: [plt-scheme] Planet HTTP 403 errors

I really have no idea. (It does, however, seem to me to more likely to
be an issue with the configuration of your machine if connecting to
multiple different hosts all produce the same http protocol response
-- that 403 response actually requires something on the other end to
formulate a particular series of bytes and send them back -- mzscheme
and drscheme won't do that.)
