Bug description

The OCaml readme section 'Keeping in Touch with the Caml Community' mentions the ocaml.org website at the end of the section, and doesn't mention the discuss.ocaml.org forum at all. These two resources should be at the top of the section so users can immediately access them, and the older fora should be mentioned later.

In fact several places in the readme direct the user to caml.inria.fr, where they will immediately see that the site is being retired in favour of ocaml.org. It would be better to directly mention ocaml.org in the first place and avoid confusing users.

This sounds reasonable, would you be willing to provide a patch that rewords this section?

(The final state is a compromise where caml-list remains mentioned first, and Discuss later.)
