I've updated the GSL webpages on gnu.org to the latest in the git
repository, since many new features have been added since the last
1.16 release. The main page also now recommends to install GSL from
the git, since 1.16 is quite outdated. This brings me again to the
discussion of the next release of GSL.
The last discussion of GSL v2.0 was in June 2014 (time goes too
quickly!). I would like to reopen this discussion. The main points
back then holding up v2.0 were:
Why is the next version called v2.0 rather than v1.17. Bumping the major
number (1->2) is interpreted by many (including me) that things are
gonna break in the interface, which I hope is not the case. Please don't
bump major version number just to show how much development has happened
between releases.
Just my two cents.
Thanks,
Peter
