@logankilpatrick: Is there something that can be done “officially”? Put a request to repl.it …

Our “official” request is the PR I have here: [https://github.com/replit/polygott/pull/89](https://github.com/replit/polygott/pull/89) I think it will get merged today.

It’s been a little while since I used repl.it. Has it gotten any better about adding/using packages? Last I tried it would fail when I tried to use even pretty standard packages.

It’s getting better very fast! The service is still pretty new.
