If you are really a beginner, I will really recommend to you using your
distribution OCaml packages, no matter if its ocaml 3.10.2 or 3.11.2.
Debian and Fedora provide packages (apt-get install ocaml on Debian).

caml.inria.fr and the Hump is a pretty good place to start:
http://caml.inria.fr/cgi-bin/hump.fr.cgi
The site available here are also good points to start with:
http://caml.inria.fr/resources/index.fr.html
and especially
http://www.ocaml-tutorial.org/
Then you have ocamlcore.org related websites:
- http://www.ocamlcore.org: entry point of ocamlcore.org
- http://planet.ocamlcore.org: for the latest (general) news of the
OCaml community
- http://forge.ocamlcore.org: participate to various OCaml projects
or create your own
Regards,
Sylvain Le Gall
