I think that not everyone reads every message. But I think the
discussion will be a bit more focused if we just had one thread about
dropping gcl because it is becoming more and more difficult to maintain
maxima with gcl.
And whether you want it or not, you are the de facto leader, if for no
other reason than that you set the release dates and set the release
labels and do the release engineering.
Dropping gcl makes my life easier. I do build with gcl once in a while
just to make sure, but I don't use maxima and gcl, and don't run maxima
on Windows.
