My interest is in (soft) real-time music systems. I'm curious if anyone can comment whether this will make OCaml a potential language in that domain. I've held off on Haskell because of the whole "you might not know how long this will take", which is a non-starter for music. I mostly use Scheme and C (and Max/MSP but with custom C/Scheme in it), but I'd love to use something other than C for the low level stuff. Wondering if anyone can comment on whether this might mean OCaml can be a contender in that space now?
