Hi all,
I've just started to write an interface to some part (it's huge)
of GSL as C user written functions, in form of a contrib
module. It's only the first (very small :-)) release,
and since it's a rather big work, I'd like to know if
someone other is interested in helping me.

Following the FAQ (5.2) suggestion, I've attached
a .tgz file to be expanded into the contrib directory.
It compiles cleanly with my v7.1.3 on GNU/Linux (RH7.2).

My question: is this the right manner to contribute modules ???
So I can keep up posting to this list my updates (I've written
a couple of other modules, a libCurl interface and a nettle
(a crypto library) interface: I can post to the list them, too).


Any suggestion is welcome.

Thanks a lot
/gp
