Congratulations on the new release!
I think that it is very good to see support for other good build tools
-- omake has its own strengths (in particular Gerd Stolpmann did very
nice performance-optimization work in the recent years) and it's nice
that it is easy to use for Oasis-using projects.
Another thing that I find very good is that it had a fair number of
external contributions -- contributors are named in the blog post
http://le-gall.net/sylvain+violaine/blog/index.php?post/2016/08/22/Release-of-OASIS-0.4.6
. I don't follow the oasis development super-closely, but I have the
impression that there has recently been an uptake in terms of helping
supporting its development, which was mainly on Sylvain's shoulders
alone for years, and I think that is an extremely welcome development
for a tool so central to the OCaml packaging ecosystem of today.
