It is already quite mature and has gained some nice momentum (+40 contributors, +300 packages). OPAM has been initially funded by Jane Street[2] and the DORM EU research project, and it has received continuous help and resources from OCamlLabs[3]. > > The source code of OPAM is available on Github: > * installer: https://github.com/OCamlpro/opam > * packages and compiler descriptions: https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam-repository > * website: https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam2web > > The documention: > * install instructions and tutorial are available http://opam.ocamlpro.com/ > * the main source of documentation is 'opam --help' or 'opam --help' > * user manual: https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam/raw/master/doc/dev-manual/dev-manual.pdf > > You can report issues on github bug tracker: > * https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam/issues > > The next steps for us is to focus on improving the package descriptions quality and the global consistency of https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam-repository. We will gladly accept any kind of help and support from the community to do this! We plan to announce the release of 1.0.0 in a couple of months, with improved package quality and better integration with the future OCaml platform. > > Last point, if you are working in a company and that you already use OPAM, or plan to use OPAM, and you would like to help us ensuring it a sustainable future[2], you can contact us at contact@ocamlpro.com. > > On behalf of the OPAM team, > Thomas Gazagnaire > > [1] http://www.ocamlpro.com/ > [2] http://www.janestreet.com/ > [3] http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/projects/ocamllabs/ > > >
