I am very happy to see OCaml being adopted widely, and in particular when i= t=20 come to reliability which is the case here. Otherwise, I don't see the poin= t=20 in figthing with Haskell, but that's not the topic. Well, you know, not all the people have the same background. A job interest= is=20 very different than a technical interest. Hence, when discussing about jobs and this stuff, it can quickly show some = huge=20 differences. For instance, I don't think that OCaml's maintainers at INRIA = have=20 the same interests about the language than people in Janest. Nor the same=20 income. Even more, some people contribute to OCaml in their spare time, which means= =20 they don't get money from it, and probably don't want. More over, although we are all here to discuss about the technical issues i= n=20 OCaml, we don't all have the same ideas about external concerns, in particu= lar=20 finance in my case. However, even though my first message was probably a bit rude, I did not me= an=20 to argue in this topic. I don't believe this is a place for that, and, all = in=20 all, I wish all the best to other contributors to OCaml, although I do not= =20 necessarily like the application themselves. Hence, I would argue that a seperation in this topic would be a good thing = to=20 avoid furstrating people that have different background but would otherwise= =20 have very fruitful interactions in the pure field of technical concerns abo= ut=20 OCaml. I also think it's been enough on this topic, for the very reasons I've just= =20 explained ! All the best, Romain
