Hello GSL developers, over the past months, we (ROOT developers from CERN) created a portable implementation of RANLUX++, which was first proposed by Alexei Sibidanov in 2017 and uses an LCG equivalent to achieve a much higher luxury level than the original Ranlux and provides some more advantages (better initialization and fast skipping). Results from this portable implementation are available in https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.02504 and already shipping with the latest release of ROOT.
For wider distribution and ease of use, we would like to also contribute this generator to GSL and have already written the necessary plumbing code to integrate with the GSL interfaces. It is currently available at my GitHub: https://github.com/hahnjo/ranluxpp Could you let us know what the next steps would be? Shall we submit a patch for integration into GSL or do we have to be added to the list of "Extensions/Applications" first? Kind regards Jonas
