@sanchom Maybe go ahead and post a link? (Although I’m not one, I think there are some Pollen users here. It might be a slow week what with holidays, idk.)

@mflatt Thanks for the status report on Racket-on-Chez. Awesome work. I wonder how much of this will affect code that uses foreign function interfaces (FFI)?

The most common changes required in FFI uses: replacing access to the C API’s scheme_...functions with new ffi/unsafe/... libraries, and avoiding scheme-make-sized-byte-string. So far, when I’ve adjusted FFI-using libraries, it has been easy to change to something that works in both variants of Racket.

Great, thanks, that sounds just right to me.
