I'm interested in what Xavier Leroy said in his introduction regarding the progress of Ocaml. Did he say anything about the future of ocaml? My impression form his talk last year was that ocaml needs a constraint based parser for adding more features like GADTs to ocaml.

Yes, Xavier did mention a lot about future and progress of OCaml. GADTs also came up during the meeting, but I cannot remember now if it was during Xavier's talk or from someone else, sorry :-(

There should be videos of the talks appearing soon. I will post on my blog when they are available.
