There's some work in my team done in Racket; and it would be of great interest to us to have a working Racket build system. I can set apart some time to work on this. I'd ask for alot of guidance/ review on this though :) > I've offered to throw money at the problem if someone's willing to take > it on btw... not much, but some money.
