What became of mlglade?

What became of mlglade?

[Christopher Kauffman]

I have seen several references to mlglade, which was apparently an adaptation of 
glade, a GUI designer for the Gimp toolkit, for Ocaml that uses the excellent 
lablGtk bindings to that toolkit. I cannot seem to find a homepage for the 
project and am wondering what became of it.

If anyone has alternative suggestions on designing GTK-based GUIs (or other 
toolkits for that matter), I'd like to explore the available options.

Cheers,
Chris

Actually, it was once included in lablgtk2, but then development was
(I believe) interrupted.

lablgtk2 supports libglade, so you can use glade2, and write your
application logic in ocaml. Look at the lablgladecc tool.

Cameleon included an interface editor, but I don't see it in the
features of Cameleon2, so it may just that people see little point in
trying to reimplement glade.
