If I remember right (please correct me if I'm wrong, this is just from
memory) then mmm accepts only syntactically correct html. This alone
would make it unusable for any practical purposes, except as an html syntax
checker. Furthermore it implements only html version 2.2 fully, and most
of 3.2. I don't think that this is the kind of application that will
convince people of ocaml.
And the licence does not allow binary distribution of derivative work,
which means that it is non-free anyway.
