[racket-dev] Release Announcement for v6.0.1

From: Robby Findler (robby at eecs.northwestern.edu)
Date: Thu May 1 13:57:26 EDT 2014

The ones near my name:

 - Check Syntax cooperates with Typed Racket to show arrows and other
Check Syntax highlighting even when there is a type error

 - Functions provided via contract-out that have first-order contracts
perform better
