We would very much enjoy a OCaml version, which has not yet begun for the moment. As for now, the Merd version is around 30% complete ; the Ruby version is around 25% complete ; the Haskell and Python versions are around 10% complete ; and embryonic Nasm and Masd versions are also available. We think OCaml really deserves to be part of this project, in the Quest to show that the language can be used for real-world day-by-day tasks :-). But for the moment, OCaml experts we know of are busy doing other tasks, so if anyone of you is interested in contributing... well, the URL is above ;p. You may subscribe to the ML if interested (see the web for details). cu Pixel. ------------------- Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr
