Hi opam-devel, A few weeks ago I discussed with Jeremy Yallop the idea of having switches for major OCaml versions (4.01, 4.02, 4.03...) that would point to the currently-best minor version of them (do you remember? 4.01.0, 4.02.3, 4.03.1).
I would be willing to invest the effort of doing that and maintaining this mapping, but I feel that just creating new switches is too heavy-handed to be useful. If I already have a 4.02.3 switch, I would like "opam switch 4.02" to bring me to that switch, not install a new, distinct one with name 4.02 that would in fact install the same compiler as 4.02.3. Do I correctly understand that this feature is not possible in OPAM 1.2.x? (If it is, I may do it.) Is it possible in 2.x? (Louis: I do distinctly remember your call to try out 2.x at ICFP and I feel guilty about not having done much yet. Apologies.)
