Today, Judica�l Courant gave me an introduction into camlp4. I absolutely agree that it would be useful to package IoXML. There is, however, a reson not to include it into ocaml-tools: An IoXML package would include native versions of a library, hence the package would be architecture dependent. The ocaml-tools package, on he other hand, is architecture independent (and I would like to keep it this way). -Ralf. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
