I had a quick look at the documenta and this seems to me a good start for an ocaml packaging policy, anyway I think that some little improvement can be made. Better after woody release and when we have more time (IIRC you, Sven, are currently heavy occupied). Anyway some points have to be discussed ASAP: 1) mainly: fits the requirement stated in such a policy require a great amounts of change expecially to library packages, should we start making that changes or we better wait the freeze? I know that the freeze seems to be really far, but does we want to risk? 2) the dependencies requirement seems to me a bit more restrictive. Possible becuase I miss a point: is it granted that new version of ocaml compiler means backword incompatibility with old bytecodes?
