I'm curious about why Standard ML (SML) was chosen for this project, given the track record Jane Street has with OCaml. Do you seen an advantage for using the former in this kind of project?

It's all OCaml, GitHub is just misclassifying it as SML :)

Hint[1] in case you’re ever in this situation:

  echo '*.ml  linguist-language=OCaml' >> .gitattributes
  echo '*.mli linguist-language=OCaml' >> .gitattributes

Thank you for this. I've made the change, but it looks like it may be several days before github gets around to refreshing the language statistics.
