We, Jane Street ppx developers, are glad to announce the public availability  
of the [ppxlib project](https://github.com/ocaml-ppx/ppxlib). This project is the merge of several ppx-related  
repositories, including [ppx\_core](https://github.com/janestreet/ppx_core), [ppx\_driver](https://github.com/janestreet/ppx_driver), [ppx\_metaquot](https://github.com/janestreet/ppx_metaquot),  
and [ppx\_type\_conv](https://github.com/janestreet/ppx_type_conv). As such, ppxlib contains all the core elements one  
needs to develop ppx rewriters.

While this is not the first project released as open source by Jane Street,  
this one is slightly different as the whole development now happens on  
github. In particular, we are using a PR-based workflow and will gladly add  
external contributors to the project (see [details](https://github.com/ocaml-ppx/ppxlib/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)). We are moving to this  
workflow with the hope that it will make the collaboration with other  
open source projects easier.

The project is currently released as 0.2.0 in opam. We are planning to  
make some changes before the 1.0 release, most notably adding support  
for [view patterns](https://github.com/ocaml-ppx/ppx_view) and improving the documentation.

Contributions are warmly welcome!
