Just as a complement, we just pushed a new release fixing two issues:
- OCPWin now supports both 32 bits and 64 bits Windows platforms
- We clarified the license : you can freely redistribute significant
derivative works under your terms (commercial or non-commercial), as
long as you don't redistribute OCaml compiler parts (ocamlc/ocamlopt,
compiler-libs).
