Hi Paul! thanks for the retrospect and your honesty. I would have probably balked first and then backed off at the idea of using OCaml given all those limitations to be fair :-)

It's a beautiful language but it seems that on top of the complexity of training developers around such a non mainstream language with a less common paradigm, you also had the complexity of dealing with subpar tools and writing stuff from scratch.

Have you ever wondered if Dark could have been built in something similar with more support? Maybe F#?
