OPAM is a pack= age manager for OCaml to install libraries and tools from source archives. = It supports multiple simultaneous compiler installations, flexible package = constraints, and a Git-friendly development workflow. The goal of this beta release is to formally introduce OPAM to the communit= y, to gather some general feedback on the documentation and tools and doubl= e-check that we've not forgotten some useful features. I would also like to= use that opportunity to make an official call to maintainers: if you have = developed packages which are already in OPAM do not hesitate to claim their= ownership and to improve their description - if your packages are not yet = in, it's time to start packaging them!=20 OPAM is developed by OCamlPro[1] and has been in alpha release since June 2= 012. It is already quite mature and has gained some nice momentum (+40 cont= ributors, +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-repo= sitory * 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 --he= lp' * user manual: https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam/raw/master/doc/dev-manual/d= ev-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 qua= lity and the global consistency of https://github.com/OCamlPro/opam-reposit= ory. 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 OCam= l 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 sustainabl= e future[2], you can contact us at contact@ocamlpro.com.=20 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/
