Hi all,

we are considering using OCaml for a rather large project, the bulk of which will be networking and encryption. OCaml seems to meet our needs with one exception:
we'd like to target windows (as well as linux & mac) and we got the impression that this would be complicated -- we gathered that neither jane street's Core nor OPAM are windows compatible.

Would still recommend using OCaml? Are there workarounds, or other libraries that would replace Core?

All the best,
William
