[seqfan] Re: The abc conjecture

[Alonso Del Arte]

I tried searching for "ABC conjecture" and got 55 results, but
"ABC-conjecture" somehow narrows it down to 36 results. Either way, the
first result is A085153 <http://oeis.org/A085153>.

Whether the proof is validated or refuted, I think this bit of news is
worth an item in https://oeis.org/wiki/Template:Sequences_in_the_News
