Subject: webpage update

Message-ID: <52E00706.9020200@colorado.edu> (raw)

I updated the GSL design document "Contributing" section to have the text:

----
The GSL team welcomes new contributions to enhance the functionality of 
the library. Much emphasis is placed on ensuring the stability of the 
existing functions, library consistency, and fixing any reported bugs. 
Potential contributors are encouraged to gain familiarity with the 
library by investigating and fixing known problems listed in the bug 
tracker on the GSL savannah page.
----

The old text stated that the library was "feature complete" and gave the 
impression that we didn't want new contributions. I think this may have 
turned off a lot of potential contributors so hopefully this will 
encourage new people to become involved.
