Task description
The Debian OCaml Maintainers Task Force is up to package OCaml-related programs and libraries in Debian, to make as easy as possible the usage of such pieces of software.
Our usual activities include both routine packaging and maintenance of OCaml-related software and formalization in our policy of best practice for the OCaml packaging in Debian.

Resources
OCaml-related packages in Debian distribution are quite a lot, here you can find some resources to monitor them:
status of the various OCaml versions in Debian
(a per-OCaml version listing; answers questions like «is OCaml X.Y.Z available in Debian?»)SVN Build Statistics (powered by svnbuildstat)
source package list ; formats: `.html`, `.txt`
build dependency graph ; formats: `.dot`, `.ps`, `.png`
build order (.txt only)
- transitions
Policy
We wrote a policy establishing best practices for packaging OCaml-related software in Debian. It is available both in HTML and plain text formats. It can also be found in the `ocaml-base-nox` package on your filesystem.
