<br>It could go like &quot;the old camlp4 is deprecated, and support will be<br>dropped completely [one year after the first stable-and-documented release<br>of camlp4 3.10]&quot;<br><br>* It means two versions of camlp4 would be distributed and installed with
<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;ocaml 3.10.<br>* Command names for the new camlp4 would be distinct from the old camlp4.<br>* Old programs would still compile and work without having to patch<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;makefiles.<br>* Upgraded programs could add new features only to the 
3.10 version, while<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;maintaining minimal support (bug fixes) for the 3.09 version, without<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;forcing the camlp4 programmer to use ocaml 3.09 for testing.<br>* New programs could support only the new camlp4.</blockquote>
<div><br>This seems like a great idea. <br><br>y<br></div><br><div><br>&nbsp;</div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Martin<br>
