Is this being carried out in conjunction with the official ExtLib
development at http://code.google.com/p/ocaml-extlib/ ?

Are you planning on adding camlp4 extensions as well as library code?
It would be nice to have a moderately sized bundle of libraries and
useful syntax extensions as a sort of standard.

I second that.  I find some of the extensions in p4ck to be very helpful.  Eg. 
the hashtbl extension, open_in, etc..

Not yet. While most of the code will be shared, some packages will need
to be renamed, etc.

That's planned. The exact list of syntax extensions will need to be
discussed. I believe noone will contest including open_in .

Open_in should be fine.

Could you add Sexplib to the list?
