It's also here where I worry about a few things concerning Lwt: In Lwt, you have a monadic way to do context switches for multithreading withing a single real thread. So if you use Lwt inside the update cycle, you could well jump out of the update cycle with a Lwt context switch. As long as you do not encounter a Lwt construct within definition of signals and events, you can be pretty sure that the update cycle will go through to its end without using Lwt inside an event/signal. But at the same time, it seems that the monadic way Lwt is built avoids us such problems. But I may be mistaken. It is possible to use Lwt inside an update cycle. It is not a problem to switch context in an update cycle as long as you respect React's rules. So the compatibility of Lwt and React seems to me a worthwile question if one wants to use OCaml for high availability, reactive, parallel computations. And in this context, making E/S.switch easy to use would quite important... Thanks to React being lowlevel, the two libraries are compatible out of the box. Jérémie ___ Caml-list mailing list.

[Caml-list] old Caml projects looking for new maintainers contributors
Hello list, Prompted by Stefano Zacchiroli and Grégoire Henry's recent success in resurrecting CamlJava, I just migrated a number of my inactive OCaml side projects to the forge on ocamlcore.org: - CamlIDL (stub code generator for Caml/C interface) - CamlJava (low-level interface between Caml and Java through JNI) - CamlZIP (library to handle zip and gzip files) - Cryptokit (library of cryptographic primitives) - OCamlAgrep (library for string searching with errors) - OCamlMPI (Caml interface for the MPI parallel programming model) - SpamOracle (Bayesian mail filter) The purpose of this migration is to make it easy for others to participate in (or even take over) the maintenance and development of these projects, two tasks that I've very much neglected lately. So, if you find these projects useful and feel like participating in one way or another, just create an account on forge.ocamlcore.org and ask to join these projects. Also, the kind folks who package these projects are welcome to update their upstream URLs to point to the files on ocamlcore.org instead of my home pages: currently, they are identical, but further releases, if any, will be on ocamlcore.org. Cheers, - Xavier Leroy ___ Caml-list mailing list.
