The ML Family Workshop brings together researchers, implementors and
users of languages in the extended ML family and provides a forum to
present and discuss common issues, both practical (compilation
techniques, tooling, embedded programming) and theoretical (fancy
types, module systems, type inference).

ML 2016 will be held in Nara on September 22nd, immediately after
ICFP and close to a number of other related events, including the
OCaml Workshop on the following day.
