Hi all,
indeed I think this problem is real as I have been trying to design a
plan for Coq 8.8 (expected Q1 2018) to depend on PPX, and indeed it has
not been easy to come up with something that wouldn't be turned down by
the developers due to compatibility concerns.
It is great to hear that ocaml-migrate-parsetree helps and that the
situation is improving, but maybe the biggest concern would Coq adopt
that solution, is how fast would it become "obsolete", to be replaced by
a new one.
From my attendance to the Coq WG I got the personal feeling that there
was some amount of uncertainty about what the OCaml roadmap regarding
certain features is. This in turn difficults the elaboration of Coq's
own roadmap.
Best regards,
Emilio
