In particular, I'd like to know whether you can successfully operate Camomile in your platform. I have complaints on Mac and MinGW environments, and although I believe that the problems are fixed, I'm too lazy to find spare Mac around and test the package :-) Also, I would like to hear about a success ( /failure ) story of Camomile. Do you use Camomile? What for? This is important since I have to convince my boss to allow me to invest some spare time to Camomile project. Camomile is used in Barista [1] to encode / decode / modify UTF8 strings of Java classes. My opinion of Camomile is absolutely positive: - installation is a breeze; - API is complete yet straightforward; - it meets a need of the OCaml ecosystem. Not yet updated to 0.7.3 but 0.7.2 used to work like a charm on both MacOS X and Fedora.
