Re: Mutivariate Regression (GSL Topic: "Fitting")

It should be possible. For gsl_multifit_linear use a column of 1's in
the matrix 'X'.  For the non-linear case it should work the same as
other parameters.  If it does not work let us know.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll add them to the TODO file in case
anyone wants to work on them.
