Re: [Caml-list] Beginner's troubles with ocsigen

Raphael,

I'm adding ocsigen's mail list to CC.

I think that the best way to try eliom is to add ocsigen development
[1] opam repository [2] and install eliom-base-app from there. You
will need to hack your local postgresql installation but it is not
very difficult. See you at  #ocsigen channel of Freenode's IRC

Happy hacking!
