It's great that maxima is now on sourceforge so that the various
patches can get added.
However, what are the goals of maxima-pre59? I know that a better
build process is one major goal. What are the other goals?
I, of course, would like to see some of the more accurate numerical
routines get added, :-). The things that I did a while ago had some
simple dependencies on f2cl. Should those be removed before being
integrated? It would be much easier if we just added the f2cl
macros/functions that we need so that we can just take the converted
code without hand modifications.
For updates and things, should we send patches here for possible
inclusion in to the sources? Or is there some other way?
Thanks,
Ray
