The isotropic luminosity function (LF) and formation rate history (FRH) of
long GRBs is by the first time constrained by using jointly both the observed
GRB peak-flux and redshift distributions. Our results support an evolving LF
and a FRH that keeps increasing after z=2. We discuss some interesting
implications related to these results.
