Written as this it sounds like an undeniable desirable property :-) I mean: how do you define a "major reason"? The only reason I see, ever, for a backport of ocaml is a new upstream release. Our upstream rarely does releases for silly reasons, and releases tend to stay stable for several months. Is a new upstream release a major reason in your opinion? -- Stefano Zacchiroli -*- PhD in Computer Science \ PostDoc @ Univ.
