R help - May 2004 - Gaussian Hypergeometric Series _2F_1(a,b,c;z)

Dear all,

I am working on a small package which is supposed to provide evaluation
of the gaussian hypergeometric series. It will be based on the
Fortran-code by Robert Forrey. Does anyone beside me use this function
and would be willing to test the package or discuss requirements?

All the best,

Daniel

Hi Daniel

Dear all,

sorry for the repost, but I think that the subject line of my previous
posting did not really make my point clear. 

Is there anyone who would be interesting in testing and giving me
feedback about a package which evaluates the _2F_1 series and 
- is fast compared to the straightforward summation and
- is more precise especially near to the circle of convergence |z|~1?

If you are interested please send me a short note.

Daniel
