It is now minimal (almost all in = a single page) but shows the project status on the top of the page (and = is easier to maintain). Currently, the last entry is [[=20 2010 spring-summer (current work, in progress) : (ocaml-3.12-svn) = =93from scratch=94, making the runtime library fully reentrant, first = without threads preoccupation ]] This means that with the very little man-power we have, we are currently = concentrated on making the runtime library fully reentrant (while = relying on the past experience). This work currently does not address parallel threads, which have become = a secondary issue. I may detail the motivations later, if they don't appear evidently...
