Hi Jon, great to see a new SCL, good work! I have couple of notes for consideration.. * the collection name looks like it includes minor version of ocaml as well; might be correct, depending on ocaml versioning policy, but generally the version should only use the part of the version that likely changes if some incompatible change comes -- thus e.g. for python we only use two numbers (python27), not three (python274), since the latest bugfix release do not include incompatible changes and we can update them * then I see couple of provides that do not include scl version, e.g.: ocaml(Ssl_threads) = 9925dd2c278261461f67ee0f74f4149a I guess it means that some non-SCL ocaml package could be satisfied with SCL package, which doesn't feel right. We rather require sclname in all provides somehow Honza > > Excellent! We're working out the details for getting the scl.org folks > set up.
