Hello,
Here is the latest Caml Weekly News, week 3 to 10 september, 2002.

2) <a href="#2">Enhanced Ocaml Documentation Version 3.06</a>
3) <a href="#3">Computational Linguistics toolkit</a>

1) Baire pre-release (formerly Edison)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Diego Olivier Fernandez Pons announced:
I would like to announce the pre-release of Baire (pronounce bear)
library (a data structure library), available at the following address
<a href="http://www.ifrance.com/DiegoOlivierFernandezPons">http://www.ifrance.com/DiegoOlivierFernandezPons</a>
- web pages for the moment are in French
- all the code is in English (but comments are in French)
- there is still a lot of broken code
For the moment, all data structures are polymorphic (functors and
objects will be available once seriously debugged). But you can obtain a
functor inserting a header and replacing all "compare" occurences with
"Ord.compare"
You can report any bug to
Feedback is welcome (non exhaustive list) :
- things you don't like (function names, arguments ordering, etc)
- functions, algorithms or data structures you would like to be
included
(same adress) [email protected]
Since signatures can change until the first stable release, I do not
recommend you tou switch to Baire for the moment if you intended to.

2) Enhanced Ocaml Documentation Version 3.06
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hendrik Tews announced:
Dear all,
after reviving from the millennium flooding I proudly present
The Enhanced Ocaml Documentation
Version 3.06
available via <a href="http://wwwtcs.inf.tu-dresden.de/~tews/htmlman-3.06">http://wwwtcs.inf.tu-dresden.de/~tews/htmlman-3.06</a>
The enhanced documentation contains the original html version of
the ocaml reference manual with the following changes:
- Changes (wrt version 3.02 and to version 3.01)
are tagged with icons and color
(Sorry I skipped versions 3.03alpha - 3.05)
- meta symbols of the grammar are "hot" and refer to their
definition.
- additional appendix containing just the grammar rules
For your pleasure I compiled the
Ocaml Grammar Meta Symbol Chart
Count : meta symbol file

3) Computational Linguistics toolkit
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Gérard Huet announced:
I am pleased to announce the first release of the Zen Computational
Linguistics toolkit, a small Ocaml library. It is available from:
<a href="http://pauillac.inria.fr/~huet/ZEN">http://pauillac.inria.fr/~huet/ZEN</a> (accessible from the Caml Hump,
section Linguistics). For the moment, it comprises a few data
structures and algorithms of use for the representation of lexicons, and
for morphology and segmentation computations.
======================================================================
Old cwn
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you happen to miss a cwn, you can send me a message
([email protected]) and I'll mail it to you. If you also wish to
receive it every week by mail, just tell me so.
