Could you share a link to that so everyone realizes just how far you went? :-) That OCaml now has a clean bootstrapping story can hopefully give GHC and Scala folks an incentive to catch up. How about writing a blog post? Ricardo and you could summarize your heroic efforts, like Ricardo did for GHC (and it’d be a truly interesting read I’m sure, both for those interested in Scala’s history and for those interested in compilers). And in conclusion, you could say: “Look, a major competitor is doing it right.” :-) (And in the meantime, I fully appreciate that when you say it’s maybe time to give up, it probably *is* time.)
