The original plan was to do that once the redesign of the caml.inria.fr / caml.org site is complete. However, the author of the new site defended his PhD and left earlier than expected, leaving us with a 90%-completed site that no one wants to finish :-( Of course, we could repoint ocaml.org now to the current caml.inria.fr site, but that might be a step backwards in terms of modern look. > Is there anything we in the community can do to help?

As usual, the main issues are not technical, i.e. who is going to write what, etc. - Xavier Leroy
