What is libconduit-ocaml
libconduit-ocaml is:
The conduit library takes care of establishing and listening for TCP and SSL/TLS connections for the Lwt and Async libraries.
The reason this library exists is to provide a degree of abstraction from the precise SSL library used, since there are a variety of ways to bind to a library (e.g. the C FFI, or the Ctypes library), as well as well as which library is used (just OpenSSL for now).
