Not really. As the list archives will show you, that has been suggested (by
non GSL contributors) on other occasions. And the answer of the GSL
developers has been very clear: nope, won't happen. Given how you argued
about it this week, saying that you will not have increased the probability
of this happening would still be putting it rather, err, mildly.
So please close your case, stop mailing here and let us get back to work.
