Well, actually, I recall only one such occasion. I have since
incorparated some of your comments and explained why I didn't do so for
some others. Of course, I may have overlooked something, so I am
always open to further suggestions. Which part of the page you think is
no longer up-to-date, or what is missing, particularly with respect to
the SML->OCaml direction in question?
(But please always bear in mind that the page intentionally makes no
attempt to cover constructs that cannot be mapped reasonably between
languages, e.g. objects, poly variants, user-defined fixity, advanced
library issues, etc.)
In the light of this thread I may add a section about comparisons and
eqtypes. I hesitate because the simplistic tabular form of the page
seems a bit unsuited to cope with the respective subtleties properly.
Any ideas welcome.
