Re hello, I just see the two ocamldoc page and i think camomile still worth the value to be packaged : http://camomile.sourceforge.net/dochtml/index.html http://ocaml-lib.sourceforge.net/doc/UTF8.html http://ocaml-lib.sourceforge.net/doc/UChar.html I think there is a lot more in camomile than in extlib. The main question is : "Is it worth to have two different representation ( maybe incompatible ) of UTF-XX character ?". As far as i can see, in camomile, there is module UTF8 UTF16 UCS4, regular expression... I think i will join the extlib ML in order to know more about it ! Regard Sylvain LE GALL
