Reminder: This is a practice release. The new release process is
described at:
https://github.com/plt/racket/wiki/Release-process
Checklist items for the v6.2 release
(using the v6.1.90.900 release candidate build)
Search for your name to find relevant items, reply when you finish an
item (please indicate which item/s is/are done). Also, if you have any
commits that should have been picked, make sure that the changes are in.
Important: new builds are created without announcement, usually whenever
I pick a few commits. If you need to commit changes, please make sure
you tell me to pick it into the release branch.

Please use these installers (or source bundles) -- don't test from
your own git clone (don't test the `master' branch by mistake!). To
get the tests, you can do this:
cd ...racket-root...
./bin/raco pkg install -i main-distribution-test

both normal and unix-style installation modes. (just ubuntu)
