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.

Policy
We wrote a [http://pkg-ocaml-maint.alioth.debian.org/ocaml_packaging_policy.html/index.html 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 [http://packages.debian.org/sid/ocaml-nox ocaml-nox] package [file:///usr/share/doc/ocaml/ocaml_packaging_policy.html/index.html on your filesystem].
