Well, *if* this is the problem, then the solutions to it are well known
and adopted by other communities that maintain programming languages:
just add a "core-dev" mailing list, where only list members could post,
and someone who moderates subscription requests. Such a think will also
help defining who the core team are and give some sort of public reward
to who makes into it. Given that (as discussed in this threader) there
already OCaml committers who are not affiliated to INRIA, that would
also dispel the feeling that OCaml is an INRIA pet.
( Now probably Benedikt will probably want to kill both me and Gabriel
for thread hijack, *again* :-))
