http://forge.ocamlcore.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=559
I know it is a bit late, but I would like to give the results of the poll for OCaml Meeting 2010. I use a weighted mean of the poll answers to sort the results. Values of the answers range from 5 to 1, weight is the matching percentage of votes.
The date was chosen according to your answers, since Friday 16th April came first with a mean value of 3.85. Saturday 17th was second with 3.40.
For the last hour, the demonstration time came first with 3.84, then discussion time (3.78) and lightning talks (3.62).
There were 32 people that answered the poll.
I thank all the OCaml community to help us choose the right options.
See you at OCaml Meeting 2010

http://forge.ocamlcore.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=551
For version 2.0, Camlhighlight switches the underlying bound library from Highlight [1] to GNU Source-highlight [2]. This simplifies the parsing process and hopefully makes installation easier, as more Linux distros ship with packages for GNU Source-highlight. The Ocaml API is backwards compatible with version 1.0.
