Re:OCaml Multicore merged upstream

Few of those projects are still at the research stage (typed effects, modular implicits, unboxed types), with a handful of people working on them at most.
It is hard or even counter-productive to try to fit them on a roadmap.
The multicore project is(was?) a bit unusual from the point of view of OCaml development since it is a massive engineering effort with a focused team.
Nevertheless, I hope that we continue and extend the "OCaml compiler bimonthly" news to give more information about the ongoing work on the compiler.

Thank you for the explanation. I hope too you will continue the OCaml compiler bimonthly, it's always an interesting read, and it's nice to be up to date with what's happening.
