Re: Bug#798145: RFP: brial -- polynomials over Boolean Rings



Hi,

since this is just a renamed (and continued) polybori, I think we should
just rename the polybori package and continue packaging there,
keeping git history and changelog. The version numbers are also
continued from the polybori ones.

Best,
Tobias
