Hello,
About the proposal to implement a package system for Maxima,
I'd like to step back and consider how substantial projects
(within Maxima) can be carried out.
I'd like to see something like this: interested parties
propose a new project. They maintain a web page somewhere
which states the proposal (subject to change of course)
and has an archive of the discussion about the proposal.
Sooner or later the project administrator, either alone
or in concert with other developers and/or users,
gives the proposal a thumbs up or thumbs down.
This is largely inspired by the Python Enhancement Proposal
(PEP) process.
For what it's worth,
Robert Dodier
