I just wanted to say that is not important which project at SF the
code goes or even which snap shot is used, as long as there is
one set of code base. I think the changes I made to make the
binding one package instead of 4 makes it easier to use Lapack
but these are not critical changes to the API itself. I used
the original Ada Blas and Lapack code. Did not write anything myself.

It will be better for Ada if Lapack and Blas code was in source
control and everyone knows which source to use. That is the important
thing.
