[racket] recent updates to Whalesong development: web-world
We're smack in the middle of implementing web-world for Whalesong,
which is analogous to regular world, but with web pages. Unlike
regular world, the callbacks in web-world take in both the world as
well as a functional representation of the DOM.
We have a few programs and some initial documentation on this. The
documentation for the web-world API is:
http://hashcollision.org/whalesong/#(part._.The_web-world_.A.P.I)
Here are two toy examples. (Note: try the examples in Chrome.
Firefox will almost certainly not work. See:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676343 for details.)

I'd like some feedback on the API; does this seem like a convenient
model for writing web programs, or is it missing something crucial?
