Or is this a "cathedral like" library ? I've deliberately tried to unify many of the conventions that people have used to allow users to easily change between data structure implementations. A major goal of the project is that you don't have to rely on downloading some random .ml/.mli from someone's webpage and embed it your project. Instead you just use the reins library and only have to worry about updating one piece of software for updates/ bug fixes. As for being a cathedral vs bazaar, I am very open to (and hoping to receive!) contributions from others. There have been several interesting data structures developed by members of the OCaml community and I would happily give any developer access to the project that wished to contribute their work. > And what's the licence ? Oops, thanks for reminding me. The code is under the LGPL v2.1 Cheers, -Mike
