Yes ocamlpvm has been upgraded for ocaml3.00, but it has also been largely
rewritten. It implements now all (or most of all, one or two might be missing) pvm
functions, including groups functions. It is now a pvm type-safe implementation ; we
have added pvm_pkobj and pvm_upkobj for transferring any data from an ocaml program
to another using Marshalling.
The distribution includes two utilities: daemons and mailboxes, based on PVM.
We use it everyday and it is (I think) extremely stable.
What is missing? The documentation. But it is fairly compatible with Pvm doc.

PS : ocamlpvm is the ML bindings for the PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) package,
which is widely used for distributing computations across networks of computers.
