+*plt-scheme-4.2 (04 Jun 2009)
+
+ 04 Jun 2009; Marijn Schouten <hkBst@gentoo.org> +plt-scheme-4.2.ebuild:
+ bump
+ Internally, this version includes a conversion from C++ to Scheme
+ for part of the GUI toolbox --- specifically, 25k lines of code
+ that implement the general text and pasteboard editor. This
+ conversion is a start on a larger reimplementation of the GUI
+ toolbox. Although we believe that this change will help make PLT
+ Scheme better in the long run, we must expect bugs in the short
+ term due to porting errors. Users should therefore be aware of
+ the change, even though the new implementation is meant to behave
+ the same as previous versions.
+
+ * A new statistical profiler is now available; see the "profiler"
+ manual for more information. Currently, the profiler supports
+ only textual output, but future plans include a GUI interface
+ and DrScheme integration.
+
+ * The `world' teachpack is now deprecated. Its replacement
+ `universe' has a new interface that uses strings instead of
+ symbols and characters.
+
+ * Web-server: Native continuations in the stateless servlet
+ language support capturing continuations from untransformed
+ contexts; soft state library for stateless servlets.
+
+ * DrScheme's Stepper can now jump to a selected program
+ expression.
+
+ * New in `scheme/base': `hash-has-key?', `hash-ref!',
+ `in-sequences', `in-cycle'. New in `scheme': `count',
+ `make-list' (from `scheme/list'), `const' (from
+ `scheme/function').
+
+ * Some performance improvements, including faster start-up for small
+ programs. The latter is a result of delaying module invocations at
+ higher phases (compile time, meta-compile time, etc.) until
+ compilation is demanded at the next lower phase; this on-demand
+ instantiation is per-phase, as opposed to per-module within a phase.
