Dear GAP Forum

Thomas Breuer has already posted maximal subgroups of PSL(5,2). I include a
list of representatives of the maximal subgroups of PSL(6,2) (i.e. the
group returned by the GAP command PSL(6,2)) - there are 9 of these.

I don't have the list to hand for PSL(7,2) =~ GL(7,2), but that is quite easy.
As subgroups of the matrix group GL(7,2), there are 6 irreducible maximals,
two each of the shapes
2^6:L(6,2),  2^10:(L(2,2) X L(5,2))  and  2^12:(L(3,q) X L(4,2))
(where you get the second of each pair as inverse transpose of the first)

and also the semilinear group PGammaL(1,2^7).

So, 7 classes altogether.
