Yes. But NTL could do with a few more overloads for operator= and
operator+ and so on. Not a big deal by any means. The larger issue is
the GPL license. If Stroup would be willing to release under a
different license, like you suggest, that would be great. (As long as
he didn't use any GMP code in building NTL. I think it's from scratch,
but I don't know.)
