Subject: OCaml projects on github, hard to find?
Date: Fri, 17 Sep 2010 08:43:04 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <slrni96ago.skq.sylvain@gallu.homelinux.org> (raw)
Hello all,
Before anyone claimed that I am not honest, let me be clear: I am one of
the admin of OCaml Forge, so I am biased.
So here is my problem, from time to time I found interesting OCaml
projects on github. But some are really hard to find. Let me take some
simple examples, using google search and small projects:
project URL, description, google request -> n° page where the first entry is
* http://github.com/polazarus/oclock, Access to POSIX clock_gettime,
"ocaml clock" -> 7+
* http://github.com/thelema/tornadocaml, xor-based FEC,
"ocaml tornado" -> 7+
This is not the case for everything, (e.g. ocaml-appengine,
ocaml-orm-sqlite, ocaml-redis et al are ranked 1st page).
Even if these projects are small, it would be great that they did a
single release and to be referenced on the Hump, for example.
N.B. modifying google request can improve ranking e.g. "ocaml xor fec"
or "ocaml fec".
Regards,
Sylvain Le Gall
p.s.: if someone can volunteer to create a small application that
automatically fetch new projects/news from project on github/google
code/whatever, I will be happy to add it to planet.ocamlcore.org.
