Hello Camm,

I have been working as of late with the ansi build of gcl-2.6.8pre.
Without reservation, I must say I am impressed.  This is truly
excellent work!

I would be very happy to contribute to GCL, and in particular to its
advance towards ANSI compliance.

I have noticed several issues which I feel I could address, but do not
understand the priorities of the GCL team for purposes of releasing
2.7.0.  Could you provide a brief description of what you mean by
`general direction and needs of the release'?

Thanks,
Steve
