This email is about http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/was/rc/web/index.html I've added a components link to the developer link. I've listed the main components under "Use an open free alternative". I did not add a components link to the main page, since the main point of the site redesign is to appeal to users who have never heard of GAP, PARI, Singular, etc. > In terms of missing information, I've heard several complaints that it > is too hard to figure out how to install the windows version. It is. The solution is to (1) create a good msi installer, and (2) have a well-supported vmware machine. Michael is working on (1) for sage-2.5, and (2) is now done I think. > Also, as far as missing information, the "killer app" IMHO > is that SAGE includes an easily installed version of Maxima, > GAP, Singular, etc. When a PARI or GAP or Singular user visits > this page, it would be nice to have something which would convince > them that there is no harm in switching and welcome them to SAGE.
