Hi Gilles, As a Jira issue, RNG-37 is OK. But for something like Help Wanted, I would add a link to another implementation that can be used as a template and/or a page describing which interface to implement, what to test, that sort of thing. The idea is to make it easy for someone new to the

Hi Gilles, I looked at the issues in RNG, and I didn't find something that seemed appropriate for a beginner. The closest, in my opinion, are RNG-33 (adding convenience methods to UniformRandomProvider) and RNG-37 (implementing Ziggurat). Maybe with some more explanations or project
