As the creator and maintainer of GSLL, a Common Lisp interface to GSL, I
find this very helpful. I am currently trying to map the API changes made
in the transition to GSL 2.x. It is a bit of work to dig down to find the
information I need, but all the details seem to be present. I note that the
GSL changelog is not a complete description of everything that's changed,
not even major API changes, and this tool fills that gap.

Thank you for the service.
