Is there any link to more information other than "it has been released"? I looked for docs or example code but could only find a tarball download.


There is a link at the very first line of they message, while at the bottom there is a link to they complete archive.

Looks like you need to email them to find out more. The article says it should be up on github soon. I haven't had a reason to play around with OCaml, but this could be something fun to hack on.


I hope OCaml will deliver on node's promise.


Please stop giving libraries names that are exactly the same as the words used for the abstract concepts they implement. It confuses absolutely everybody, especially search engines and people just coming in to a new language.
