[racket] Racket for Lego Mindstorms EV3

There is also ev3dev ( https://github.com/mindboards/ev3dev ), which is a
port of the original ev3 kernel to a full Debian, and allows to program the
brick in any programming language that can read/write to files (so Racket
included, when compiled to ARM).

I haven't tested it in a while, and it doesn't seem to be fully ready yet
(support for motors seems to be in an early stage), but it is very
promising. I hope it will get in a usable state soon.
