OK thanks for the answers Gary.

Could you please create for me the following project
GSLL
Gnu Scientific Library for Lisp
An interface to the Gnu Scientific Library (GSL) from Common Lisp.
The license will be LLGPL/FDL.
At the present time, I am the only developer.
I would like a Subversion repository and a Trac page.  I would like
just one mailing list which will handle all traffic (expected to be
low), if that is possible.  I am already a clnet user (lhealy).

Thank you for doing this, and thank you for providing the project hosting.

Liam
