I'd also like to thank the following people for working at the last moment to help ensure racket was available in other package managers

@leahneukirchen for updating Racket 8.6 for Void Linux  
@zyga for publishing a Racket 8.6 Snap to the `beta` channel.  
@LiberalArtist for sending the updates for Guix in: [[PATCH 0/6] gnu: Update Racket to 8.6](https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57050)  
@xgqt & @tgbugs for updating the [Racket Gentoo Package](https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-scheme/racket)

🥰

PS If YOU use another package manager and have updated it to Racket v8.6 please let us know!
