[...] > What do people think about the proposal ? To put it simple, and if I understood correctly : Right now the linking lookup is done on a name basis, with an additionnal MD5 check. Your proposal is to make a lookup on a (Name+MD5) basis. This way you can have overlapping names that differs only by MD5. That looks simple and nice, since it corrects two problems at once : - module name overlapping - versionning : having several versions on the library installed or packaged into the same CMA would be ok this way ! Where can I vote for ? :) Regards, Nicolas Cannasse ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
