The Giac/Xcas project began in year 2000, following the development of the CAS
for HP calculators. It has now around 150,000 lines of C++ code (most written
by B. Parisse), and around 300 pages of English documentation (most written
	by R. De Graeve). It has interfaces with php, latex, texmacs and soon
java, playing the role of computation kernel. It also interfaces with PARI,
CoCoA, NTL, GSL, GMP, MPFR. Current development directions include faster
algorithms for the mostly used operations: multiplication, division, gcd of
multivariate polynomials.
