Eric Sessoms announced his Erlang-Scheme interoperability library recently on the PLT discussion list.
What it is: Basically, it’s a port of Distel from emacs lisp over to
scheme. It talks to erlang using its own protocol and impersonates an

that erlang processes look like [...]
Here is some advice on writing teachpacks for PLT’s DrScheme.
About teachpacks:
Teaching languages are small subsets of a full programming language. While such restrictions simplify error diagnosis and the construction of tools, they also make it impossible (or at least difficult) to write some interesting programs. To circumvent this restriction, it is possible to import teachpacks [...]
Typed Scheme is a typed dialect of PLT Scheme. It integrates with modules written in other PLT dialects, and provides a type system designed to support common Scheme idioms.
Typed Scheme is a pretty neat language because it can can both use and be used by (untyped) Scheme code in PLT Scheme.
Eli released a library to facilitate interactive debugging in PLT Scheme.
