Subject: | Interested in maintaining the gsl package. |

Greetings. I use Octave to make graphs and animations for the physics courses I teach. I recently had a need for some special functions that are found in the Gnu Scientific Library, which led me to the unmaintained Octave package gsl.
I was able to make it work, but now I feel compelled to do what is necessary to make gsl available to all as an officially maintained package. I am wondering whether I would actually be capable of doing the job. I have >30 years of experience with programming in the field of experimental particle physics, but I have relatively little experience with source code management systems and I have never tried to build any Octave package from the source. If I could receive a little orientation (without being a burden on anyone), I would like to give it a try. What do you think? Thank you.
