This remark is to the whole community, how many ode/gillespie wrappers
do we really need? Are there now almost 100 listed on the sbml site?
Instead of writing yet another sbml/ode wrapper isn't it time we
actually did something truly innovative?

Agreed. There is currently no plan to roll solvers into libSBML. If we
(SBML Team) do ever work on solution engines, I forsee them being
separate packages or libraries; it makes more sense that way.
