LeftParen now works with PLT Scheme 4.1.5
LeftParen 0.6 0.61 is now available. In the past, LeftParen has always required a pre-release version of PLT Scheme, but now it works with the currently available release version. How handy. Version 0.6 0.61, by the way, is not compatible with any other version of PLT Scheme.
Update: The update from 0.6 to 0.61 adds the #:sticky optional argument to body-as-url as well as some documentation...

LeftParen 0.51 is out!
Update: I did an incremental update to 0.51 to lock in some particular versions of 3rd party PLaneT packages. There was a problem with the (1 8) version of dispatch.plt, so LeftParen currently now uses (1 7).
LeftParen now requires PLT Scheme 4.1.3.9 or greater—sorry about that. It’s just that some pretty hefty changes (and improvements!) happened to the web server in the...

LeftParen 0.4 is now available
Update: This release appears not to be compatible with PLT Scheme 4.1.3. In the meantime, try 4.1.2. See this PLT listserv post for more info.
This release adds RSS/Atom support (thanks zitterbewegung), and has improved image upload functionality (thanks hager). We’ve also expanded the documentation, including adding writeups on these two new features. Of course, this release also fixes...

LeftParen 0.3 released--compatible with PLT 4.1
Tonight I released the next version of LeftParen. The major change in this version is PLT 4.1 compatibilty. Note that it is not backwards compatible with earlier versions of LeftParen. There are a bunch of new features in this release too. Unfortunately, none of them are documented (that’s next on the todo list!). But, the tutorials have been updated, so make sure to check them out. As...
Status update for PLT 4.x compatible release
I’m nearing a PLT 4.x compatible release of LeftParen. The new version has a lot of new stuff in it, which I’m excited to publish.
In the meantime, someone named “fjl” went ahead and made the current version of LeftParen work with 4.x. (fjl, could you email me so that I can coordinate the “unforking” of LP?) I actually haven’t tried this code yet, but...

Version 1.2 0.2 is out. Cookie expirations are no longer hard-coded to a particular date and I use the new hash table functions (hash-ref, hash-set!, make-hash, etc). This means that LP now requires PLT Scheme v3.99.0.23 or greater.
I released version 1.1 0.1 of LeftParen to PLaneT. This release fixed a problem with some hard-coded directories. (Thanks to Jens Soegaard for the catch!) I’ve also made it so that scripts always run relative to the project root. This allows for more portable projects. I’ve updated the documentation to reflect these changes.
