Diskuv OCaml docs when OCaml 5 is released

Open jonahbeckford opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

This is how I think Diskuv OCaml and the rest of the Windows options should look after the platform installer + Opam 2.2 + OCaml 5 are released. This accompanies and replicates much of #539 (but it explicitly de-elevates Diskuv OCaml).

Hello Jonah!

In your #539 PR, you made some modifications of the "Up and Running" page, such as this or that and maybe more.

You did not included those modifications in this new PR. And that's a good thing, as there is already a PR in progress modifying this file! #548

Do you prefer to include your changes in your PR, once #548 is merged and you are rebased on it? Or, do you prefer that we do those modifications in #548?

Can you include them in #548? Not for any noble reason, but because I'm on vacation for a couple weeks and waiting for me to get access to a make start capable PC will block everyone needlessly.

Sure! Thanks for your answer and enjoy your vacation.

@jonahbeckford I just rebased the PR on top of main. In anticipation of the release of opam 2.2: I think this will also need an update to the Up and Running guide, which now recommends using Diskuv to setup OCaml on Windows

@jonahbeckford: Can you review this PR now that OCaml 5 has been released?

I think this will need to be released when both OCaml 5 and opam 2.2 are ready. opam 2.2 is not here yet, so the page won't make much sense.

@dra27 Are there any updates to the docs that you'd want to see in the interim period between now (OCaml 5) and opam 2.2 release?

Certainly not before the alpha release - the content of this PR (at a quick look) can probably go live once the alpha is tagged.

@jonahbeckford @dra27 : Is PR this still relevant?

cuihtlauac avatar Sep 24 '24 06:09 cuihtlauac

Will be merged as part of #2727
