Hi,

I notice you have listed "polynomial ring over arbitrary ring". Pushing this down to sagex is a prerequisite for getting the Z[x] arithmetic in FLINT integrated into SAGE.

FLINT is coming along well, but I don't know if I can get all of the following done before SAGE 2.0:
(a) get FLINT to release 1.0
(b) move generic polynomial elements to sagex
(c) write specialised Z[x] wrapper (i.e. write a derived class of generic polynomial element) which uses FLINT objects for basic arithmetic

I'm reasonably sure (a) will be done by SAGE 2.0. I don't think I can get all three done though. It would be really wonderful if someone would volunteer to do (b), and hopefully have it done before I get to (c).

David

I'll do (b)
