Ok, i will try to add some of the stuff from the old policy document in time, provided i can use conglomerate or something such for it. If not i will just post the paragraphs, and leave the work of actually adding them to someon more XML fluent. > As we have discussed on friday night : > - choose between putting META file either in stdlibdir/META.package > or stdlibdir/package/META ( we have choose the second one because it is > the default way of doint this with ocamlfind... ) As i understood it, they go in package/META, because the other method was not supported yet by findlib. If that has changed, it would be nicer to put them all in a ocamllib/METAS directory, and have findlib modified accordyingly. > - separated camlp4 extension in stdlibdir/package-syntax/.
