What are the technical reasons why it is better to develop it outside OCaml that inside? You already raised this problem in the past and it is pretty clear that most users wanted to see it shipped with OCaml because they think you can't separate them. How about leaving political reasons aside and pleasing users with living with the current situation? Users don't have to be witnesses of your personal problems, IMHO.
