Bug#644757: O: ocaml-book -- English book: "Developing applications with Objective Caml"
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I've just orphaned ocaml-book (shipping binary packages ocaml-book-{en,fr}).
In the last upload I've cleaned up the package and brought it up to recent
packaging practices, as well as acknowledged a recent NMU (thanks Jakub Wilk!).
Maintenance cost of the package is essentially zero.
It should probably be adopted by the Debian OCaml team (Cc:-ed). The only
reason why it wasn't maintained by them yet is that the package actually
predated widespread team maintenance of OCaml-related packages.
The main pending task is to convert it to a non-native Debian package, creating
a fake/joint upstream tarball for the two books.
Cheers.
The package descriptions are:
HTML version of the French book: "Developpement d'applications
avec Objective Caml" published by O'Reilly.
.
This package contains the HTML version of the book.
This is the English translation of the O'Reilly's OCaml French
book "Developpement d'applications avec Objective Caml" that can
be found in the ocaml-book-fr package.
.
This package contains both the HTML and PDF version of the book.
