I'm happy to announce the release of js_of_ocaml 2.8 & 2.8.1.
They are already available via OPAM.

Js_of_ocaml is a compiler from OCaml bytecode to JavaScript. It makes it
possible to run pure OCaml programs in JavaScript environment like browsers
and Node.js.

Here are some notable changes:

Support for OCaml 4.03
-----------------------------

Async_kernel (and Core_kernel) support
--------------------------------------------------
In the findlib package js_of_ocaml.async.
Note that it is only available with a 32bit OCaml compiler.

Dynlink and separate compilation
----------------------------------------
One can now compile OCaml module (.cmo) and OCaml library (.cma) to
JavaScirpt.
Loading theses JavaScript files is enough to dynlink them.

Improved JavaScript code generation
----------------------------------------------
* preserve as much as possible OCaml variable names (in pretty mode)
* Better source map support
* Drastically reduce memory usage when assigning short variable names


The full change log is available on github

Happy hacking
