-ocamldoc API reference
-======================
-
-The -dev packages of Core contains ocamldoc API reference in HTML format as
-usual. Additionally, Jane Street Capital have made available an integrated API
-reference with Core and all its other libraries on the web at:
-
-  http://www.janestreet.com/ocaml/janestreet-ocamldocs/

-Thread support with ocamlc and ocaml
-====================================
-
-Both Core and Core_extended require thread support. To enable it for programs
-you're building you can use findlib and pass -thread to ocamlc, e.g.:
-
-  $ ocamlfind ocamlc -thread -package core -libkpkg foo.ml
-
-To experiment with Core in the top-level you can use the #thread directive just
-before #require-ing Core, e.g.:
-
-  zack at usha:~$ ledit ocaml -init /dev/null
-          Objective Caml version 3.11.1
-
-  # #use "topfind";;
-  - : unit = ()
-  Findlib has been successfully loaded. Additional directives:
-    #require "package";;      to load a package
-    #list;;                   to list the available packages
-    #camlp4o;;                to load camlp4 (standard syntax)
-    #camlp4r;;                to load camlp4 (revised syntax)
-    #predicates "p,q,...";;   to set these predicates
-    Topfind.reset();;         to force that packages will be reloaded
-    #thread;;                 to enable threads
-
-  - : unit = ()
-  # #thread;;

-bin_opt support not fully functional on all architectures
-=========================================================
-
-One of the dependencies of the core library is bin_opt (Debian package:
-libbin-opt-camlp4-dev). It is known, also according to upstream, to be working
-properly only on:
-
-  i386  amd64
-
-On other architectures you do get proper marshalling and umarshalling, but you
-loose architecture independence in the resulting binary format. As such, you
-might get segfault when transferring data among machines having different
-architectures.
-
-Some more details on this issue are available at
-http://caml.inria.fr/pub/ml-archives/caml-list/2008/05/56cf55b101f21b608feb64c75b92c679.en.html
-and, more generally, in the thread starting at
-http://caml.inria.fr/pub/ml-archives/caml-list/2008/05/296bd8cda27c408a793b3ec1669f2f76.en.html

-Debian source package for Jane Street Core Library
-==================================================
-
-Patching upstream sources
--------------------------
-
-This source package uses quilt to apply and remove its patches. Please
-refer to `/usr/share/doc/quilt/README.source' for information about
-how to use quilt for source packages.
-
-The quilt series is generated from the Git repository, using
-dom-{apply,save}-patches, from the dh-ocaml (>= 0.5) package. Please
-refer to the appendix about Git in the Debian OCaml Packaging Policy
-(from the same package).
