[racket-dev] Pre-Release Checklist for v5.3.6, second call

Checklist items for the v5.3.6 release
   (using the v5.3.5.900 release candidate build)

Search for your name to find relevant items, reply when you finish an
item (please indicate which item/s is/are done).  Also, if you have any
commits that should have been picked, make sure that the changes are in.

Important: new builds are created without announcement, usually whenever
I pick a few commits.  If you need to commit changes, please make sure
you tell me to pick it into the release branch.

--> Release candidates are at
-->   http://pre.racket-lang.org/release/installers

Please use these installers (or source bundles) -- don't test from
your own git clone (don't test the `master' branch by mistake!).  To
get the tests directory in such a directory, you can do this:
   cd ...racket-root...
   git archive --remote=git://git.racket-lang.org/plt.git release \
       -- collects/tests | tar x

   Release tests for (one of the) linux releases:
   - Test that the `racket' and `racket-textual' source releases
     compile fine (note that they're still called `plt' and `mz' at
     this stage).
   - Test that the binary installers for both work, try each one in
     both normal and unix-style installation modes. (just ubuntu)
