---+ Discarded idea for a 511 project
I decided not to do this for my 511 project, but there were some links on here that might prove useful in the future.


---++ Idea1: implement census maps w/app server written in scheme
Need: 
   * graphics libraries that can draw polygons on images, save as PNG %Y% -- see http://download.plt-scheme.org/chronology/mzmr204.4.html
   * way to get at census bureau data, perhaps by translating into a database format -- 
      * http://planet.plt-scheme.org/#sql-oo.plt2.0 SQLite
      * http://planet.plt-scheme.org/#sqlite.plt3.0 SQLite
      * http://list.cs.brown.edu/pipermail/plt-scheme/2004-August/006236.html lists four; later in thread talks about Schematics project
         * [[http://www.cs.uvm.edu/~dvanhorn/scheme/mysqlclient.ss][Mysqlclient]] -- needs C FFI
         * [[http://schematics.sourceforge.net/schemeql.html][SchemeQL]]
         * [[http://www.elemental-programming.org/Bigloo%20SQLI.html][SQLID]]
         * DB.SS
         * MyS.c
         * [[http://www.alphageeksinc.com/cgi-bin/lispnyc.cgi?PltDb][PltDb]] -- looks pretty amateur, plus is a meta-project
      
      * plus it looks like there are ways to hook C libs into Scheme, see http://www.cs.utah.edu/plt/mailarch/plt-scheme-2002/msg00621.html
      * [[http://www.swig.org/][SWIG]]
    * [[http://list.cs.brown.edu/pipermail/plt-scheme/2005-September/009588.html][thread extoling plt-web server]] 

---+++ other
   * [[http://directory.fsf.org/PLTScheme.html][PLT Scheme]]
   * [[http://schematics.sourceforge.net/][Schematics]] - several libs, including unit test framework, wiki sw, etc
   * [[http://scheme-pg.sourceforge.net/][Scheme-PG]] Postgres interface
   * [[http://www.cs.uvm.edu/~dvanhorn/scheme/][several routines]], including C FFI
