I didn't say it did.  

As I said in my message and in the comment of the blog post I'm not really fond of the proposal either but I still think it's a better thing than camlp4.

Regarding your comments about fragmentation, camlp4 is actually much more prone to lead to fragmentation and confusion (e.g. this revised syntax thing) than the proposed mechanism.

Why not. But metaocaml is not about static meta-programming, it provides abstractions for runtime meta-programming.

Best,

Daniel
