Dear OCaml developers:

BuckleScript is an optimizing compiler for OCaml to generate readable
_javascript_, it is open sourced by Bloomberg [1] (also supported by
Facebook ReasonML team).

Two major changes brought by this release:
1. Namespace support. Unlike most existing implementations, the namespace
support is non leaky which means you have and only have one way to  access
`Pkg.A`, the build system makes full use of concurrency, it is highly
performant and scalable.

2. Better error message, this is mostly brought by Facebook ReasonML team,
they wrote a blog about it [2]

A non complete list of changes are listed here:
https://github.com/BuckleScript/bucklescript/blob/master/Changes.md#190

BuckleScript is indeed growing quickly these days [3], there is a large
chance that we can make it reasonably popular and reach a 10x larger
audience, contributions  are much appreciated.

Documentation is available here:
http://bloomberg.github.io/bucklescript/Manual.html

To install:
npm install -g bs-platform

Happy hacking in OCaml! -- Hongbo
