No, that is not true, i have uploaded a ocaml 3.02 to unstable, and i hope the camlp4 maintainer will do so also soon (if not, just submit a bug report against it, and if that don't help, i will do a NMU of it). lftp ftp.fr.debian.org:/debian/pool/main/o/ocaml> ls -l ocaml_3.02* -rw-rw-r-- 1 mysql 102 9745 Aug 3 17:33 ocaml_3.02-1.diff.gz -rw-rw-r-- 1 mysql 102 684 Aug 3 17:33 ocaml_3.02-1.dsc -rw-rw-r-- 1 mysql 102 4311250 Aug 4 03:15 ocaml_3.02-1_alpha.deb -rw-rw-r-- 1 mysql 102 2123598 Aug 4 02:06 ocaml_3.02-1_hppa.deb -rw-rw-r-- 1 mysql 102 3776464 Aug 3 17:33 ocaml_3.02-1_i386.deb -rw-rw-r-- 1 mysql 102 1614709 Aug 3 17:33 ocaml_3.02.orig.tar.gz I have also planned to package ledit, but a disk crash came in the way, and was rather busy since then. I don't think the licence problem is unsolvable, if there is any (don't remember, will check again). That said, debian has not yet freezed the boot floppies nor the policy, and until the policy is not finalized, there cannot be a package freeze. Next will come, if i am right, the base and essential package freeze, and planned for begin of september the package freeze. But since the boot floppy freeze had some delay, the package freeze will more probably be around october, in anyway this is far enough time for an update to all the ocaml stuff.
