Hello,

Here is the latest Caml Weekly News, for the week of April 16 to 23, 2013.

1) first release of dolog: the dumb ocaml logger
2) Other Caml News

------------------------------------------------------------------------
** Francois Berenger announced:

After an 'opam update', you should be able to see the dolog package.

Here is its minimalistic interface definition:
---
type log_level = FATAL | ERROR | WARN | INFO | DEBUG

val set_log_level : log_level -> unit
val set_output : out_channel -> unit

val fatal : string Lazy.t -> unit
val error : string Lazy.t -> unit
val warn : string Lazy.t -> unit
val info : string Lazy.t -> unit
val debug : string Lazy.t -> unit
---

The full source code can be found here:

<https://github.com/HappyCrow/dolog>

The license is a BSD one.

I believe the more complete logging alternative
is Xavier Clerc's Bolt (<http://bolt.x9c.fr/>).
