everyone--
At the risk of flogging a dead horse...
I still think the simplest and most effective way to improve the
utility of Ocaml in the construction of large software projects is not
a CPAN-like distributed source library-- it's a federated naming
authority for library modules, like you find in the Java Runtime
Environment.
This is the *one* glaring hole in the language as far as I'm concerned,
and if I ever find myself in a position to do something about it-- I
just might have to hack the tool chain myself to get what I want. (On
the other hand, the one glaring hole in the implementation that INRIA
provides, if you ask me, is the incomplete support for dynamic module
load/link in native code programs. This is not that big a problem for
me, but it would be nice to have.)
In all other respects, I'm more than satisfied-- I'm tickled pink.
