It'd be great to have a good multicore concurrency/parallelism story too. Looks like Multicore OCaml is slowly and steadily making progress.

"decent" and "almost" are generous, and it's completely realistic to say that Go, Java, Python, and Ruby's ecosystems far outshine OCaml's. Love it as a language, but the ecosystem and community have a way

> The language syntax is small enough that I believe it'll take a short time to learn and get use to the syntax versus other languages. I'm not sure size of syntax has all that much to do with adoption. Case in point: Lisp.
