Hello I'm happy to announce the release of OCaml-MariaDB, which are Ctypes-based bindings to MariaDB's version of libmysqlclient. MariaDB's version of the library is compatible with MySQL's but also includes a nonblocking API that makes it more suitable for use with OCaml's concurrency libraries such as Lwt or Async. The code and issue tracker are on Github and the package is available via OPAM: https://github.com/andrenth/ocaml-mariadb http://opam.ocaml.org/packages/mariadb/ Best regards, Andre
