They changed the license on OCaml to the QPL recently. It's not GPL compatible, and it's not the nicest license in the world, but it is a free license the Moscow ML people could work with.

I don't know - how many people are running glibc 2.1.92 now? How about X 4.0? GNAT 3.13? I'm running two out the three, because I'm too impatient to wait for unstable. Provided I'm not that much of an anomaly, unstable should be well tested; at the very least, brown paper bag bugs should get caught. -- David Starner

You now have a file with a name in Unicode. As for the job being done, [0-9] sounds better. Even if the device names stop being in Unicode, they won't go to non-Arabic numerals, and it's questionable whether we would want to strip those numbers out if they are there. -- David Starner - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
