Possible New Packages?
Attached is a list of interesting OCaml project that I think might
make useful Debian packages. I'm thinking of packaging "mylib" and
"GetOpt", since I think they would be pretty useful.
Any of you have comments on these others?
Thanks,

1. "mylib" -- A set of seemingly-useful modules (including a
nice pretty-printer).
http://www.cs.tu-bs.de/softech/people/lindig/software/mylib/index.html
This is a nice small package that I think could be useful as a
developer tool.
2. "CGI" -- A library for writing CGI programs in OCaml
http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/ftp/ocaml/cgi/
3. "HereDoc" -- Syntactic sugar for text-generating applications.
This looks interesting -- it's based on camlp4 and can be used
to make more readable text-producing code.
http://www.eleves.ens.fr:8080/home/frisch/info/HereDoc.html
But is it's functionality provided by some other package? Like
OCamlweb or OCamlDoc?
4. "dl-runtime" -- Allows you to load primitive methods from
shared libraries with OCaml 3.00 (patch against OCaml 3.0)
http://www.eleves.ens.fr:8080/home/frisch/info/README-DL
This looks like a great tool. Has anyone tried it? Is it going to
be added to the main distribution?
5. "Getopt" -- A GNU Getopt module for OCaml
http://www.eleves.ens.fr:8080/home/frisch/soft#Getopt
I think this is a useful module.
6. "libpq_ocaml" -- PostgreSQL bindings for OCaml
http://www.eleves.ens.fr:8080/home/frisch/soft#libpq_ocaml
Another useful package. There's a MySQL version out there somewhere, too.
7. "wserver" -- Daniel De Rauglaudre's toolkit for writing
web-service applications:
ftp://ftp.inria.fr/INRIA/Projects/cristal/Daniel.de_Rauglaudre/Tools/
This is a bit dated, but might be of some interest.
Thanks,
