[MLton-user] Portability and extensions

[Ivan Tomac]

In the interest of portability, it might be a good idea to standardize and
unify some of the common extensions that are present in different SML
compilers. MLton and SML/NJ in particular are already largely compatible and
complement each other well - SML/NJ for rapid development and the REPL and
MLton for compiling the final release of a program.
Would there be any interest in unifying common extensions under a Platform
or System structure that exposes a generic interface to things such as weak
pointers and the garbage collector?
