Arc is currently living within Racket/MrScheme.

  Has it moved to Racket, then? As I recall (but I could easily be misremembering) Arc required some old version of PLT Scheme that still came with old fashioned mutable pairs. (And I think they switched to immutable pairs before they switched to the name Racket.)

    Last I heard it was still on an old version. Arc really should update. For example, Racket has just changed it's IO system to support epoll/kqueue out of the box. I expect Hacker News would greatly benefit from this.

      Arc can run on the latest version of Racket. You have to use Arc 3.1 - that build is a bit buried on the site: http://arclanguage.org/item?id=10254 http://arclanguage.org/item?id=10254

    I think it would be more valid to say that Racket is doing what Arc tried to. Or Clojure, take your pick. Awesome, right?
