ICFP, CUFP & OCaml2013

I’m busy planning my first trip across the Atlantic to attend ICFP, CUFP and OCaml 2013. Today, I’ve been given the duty of “live blogging” the event, over at the syslog, the Cambridge Systems Research Group blog.

My other job for the event is to improve the documentation for Janestreet’s Async library. if anyone else is keen, I would love to organise a doc-a-thon to populate the .mli files
