I've posted a release candidate for sage-2.4 here:
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/was/tmp/rc/
It would be helpful if a few people would build this and, if that works,
do a "make test", and let me know what happens. I will make an
official release sometime on Sunday.
Here's what's included:
----------------------
* m albrecht: c-library wrapper for linbox that is seperate
from main sage library.
* m albrecht and g bard: implementation of the method of 4
russians, i.e., fast dense echelon form and matrix
multiplication over GF(2).
* n alexander: misc; docstring-related things; lots of refereeing
* b antieau: updates to programming guide
* j bober (refereed by n alexander): improvement to
random_prime, lcm, and gcd
* t boothby and w stein: *syntax highlighting* in the notebook,
use div when input cell not in focus; notebook bugfixes;
marker in title when notebook is running.
* r bradshaw: rationals from a tuple
* b granger: updated package: numpy and libpng
* d harvey: optimized [n] on formal group; misc speedups and bugfixes
* d joyner: updated sage constructions guide.
* r miller (refereed by r bradshaw): graph plotting
improvements, digraphs
* r miller: open source 'nauty' -- the first every open source
implementation of Brendan McKay's isomorphism algorithm
* j mohler (refereed by m albrecht): poly iter, misc.; move
ntl wrapper to separate library
* c citro, d roe, j balakrishan: misc stuff at arizona winter school
* w stein: full text search of docs and source in notebook
(use search_src and search_doc)
* w stein: first version of new modular abelian varieties package
* w stein: extensive improvements to modular forms package
* w stein: a new field, the ContinuedFractionField(), or CFF for short.
* w stein: lots and lots of misc bugfixes and new doctests
--------------------
What's not included:
* Brian Granger's new python package -- that will have to wait
until I do more testing
* most of the port to solaris -- again, has to wait until I have more time
* new p-adics -- needs to be more stabilized
* tons of code from Robert Bradshaw that's very nice, but too
hard for me to merge in.
* some accepted patches, e.g., real algebraics, since I want to
give patch authors time to respond to referees, etc.
