Subject: [Caml-list] [ANN] React 1.0.0

Hello, 

I'd like to announce the release of React 1.0.0 which should be
available shortly in opam. 

React provides declarative events and signals for functional reactive
programming (FRP).

Home page: http://erratique.ch/software/react
API Documentation: http://erratique.ch/software/react/doc/React

This is an incompatible release. Here are the main changes:

1. Exposes update steps (formerly called update cycles) in the
   API. This allows to perform transaction-like, semantically
   simultaneous, *primitive* signal updates and event occurences. It
   can make the reactive engine both more convenient and efficient for
   certain use cases.
   http://erratique.ch/software/react/doc/React.Step

2. To avoid leaks when weak arrays are not (i.e. JavaScript), some
   form of manual memory management can now be performed by using the
   new `strong` optional parameter of {S,E}.stop on the leaves of your
   reactive system.
   http://erratique.ch/software/react/doc/React#strongstop
  
3. S.switch no longer requires a bootstrapping argument. As a result
   S.bind is now trivially definable and is provided by the
   module. Consult the release notes for an equation to migrate your
   code.

Other details are in the release notes:

Best,

Daniel
