* Fri Aug 21 2020 Paolo Stivanin - Update to 7.8:
* Racket CS supports AArch32 and AArch64, including places and futures.
* Racket CS supports an \"incremental\" garbage-collection mode that can eliminate long GC pauses for some applications, such as animations and interactive games.
* Racket CS unboxes local floating-point arithmetic
* DrRacket\'s spell check features lower overhead and has fewer bugs.
* Web Server performance under high concurrency is better by up to an order of magnitude
* The math library includes the Kronecker product.

* Racket CS uses a new HAMT implementation, dramatically reducing the memory required for immutable hash tables.
* GC callbacks are reliably called on major collections in Racket CS. Also, Garbage collection is 10-20% faster.
* DrRacket can recover much more quickly from errors involving large stack traces.
* Call-with-current-language allows more reliable tests for language level code.
* Use of the Cairo library can be multi-threaded.
* DrRacket\'s scrolling has been made more responsive.
* DrRacket\'s dark mode support is improved for Mac OS and Unix.
* The Web Server provides fine-grained control over various aspects of handling client connections (timeouts, buffer sizes, maximum header counts, etc.) via the new \"safety limits\" construct.
* The Web Server\'s handling of large files is improved, and its latency for long-running request handlers is reduced.
* Tue Mar 24 2020 Adrian Schröter - adapt _constraints, sse3 never existed, but this is not anymore ignored in OBS
* Tue Jul 16 2019 Jonathan Brielmaier - Update to 7.3:
* There is a new set of teaching languages for the upcoming German-language textbook \"Schreibe Dein Programm!\"
* Racket\'s IO system has been refactored to improve performance and simplify internal design.
* Racket\'s JSON reader is dramatically faster.
* The `plot` library includes color map support for renderers.

* Fri Mar 29 2019 Dr. Werner Fink - Spec file clean up- Try to get it work on some ix86 CPU versions
* Wed Mar 27 2019 Dr. Werner Fink - Require some missed libraries and certificates for build as well as for installation even if rmplint cries- Update to racket 7.2
* The contract system supports collapsible contracts, which avoid repeated wrappers in certain pathological situations. Thanks to Daniel Feltey.
* Quickscript, a scripting tool for DrRacket, has become part of the standard distribution. Thanks to Laurent Orseau.
* The web server\'s built-in configuration for serving static files recognizes the \".mjs\" extension for JavaScript modules.
* The `data/enumerate` library supports an additional form of subtraction via `but-not/e`, following Yorgey and Foner\'s ICFP\'18 paper. Thanks to Max New.
* The `letrec.rkt` example model in Redex has been changed to more closely match Racket, which led to some bug fixes in Racket\'s implementation of `letrec` and `set!`.

* Thu Nov 29 2018 Tomasz Olszewski - Downgrade to Racket 7.1
* 7.1.0.1 was only a snapshot release and is already gone from Racket mirrors
* Sat Oct 13 2018 seanAATTsuspend.net- Update to Racket 7.1.0.1

* Mon Jun 25 2018 schwabAATTsuse.de- gc-aarch64.patch: remove obsolete patch, this GC implementation is no longer used.
* Wed Dec 27 2017 kgronlundAATTsuse.com- Update to Racket 6.11
* Typed Racket supports refinement types and dependent function types.
* DrRacket’s Program Contour is significantly more efficient
* The web-server/formlets library produces formlets that are serializable
* The db library supports the Cassandra database- Ensure more system resources when building package
* Sun Sep 24 2017 olszewstAATTgmail.com- Racket version bumped to 6.10.1.- Spec changes
* Drop --collectsdir in %configure in favour of --prefix (%configure would fail otherwise)
* Drop 0-size file guard. This used to delete lock files (LOCKpkgs.rktd) lack of which would result in errors in many contexts, including basic usage of both DrRacket and raco (package manager)
* Drop %_datadir/%name/collects from %dir, because parent folder is already included in another %dir entry. This fixes a warning about collects folder being listed twice.
* Added reference to starter-sh.
* Drop DrRacket\'s -singleInstance option from %suse_update_desktop_file. This option caused error messages coming from %suse_update_desktop_file itself.
