Definitely. Also, we have a "live" vmware image that is now the standard way to use SAGE under windows. You might want to work on improving it as well -- it's very close in spirit to making a live cd. > Another thing that I read on the list was the intention of maybe incorporating > the gnu linear programming package or other lp package to Sage.

I would prefer you making an spkg and then spending lots of energy on making it easy to use from SAGE instead of writing something from scratch. By using an existing library, potential for collaboration with other projects increases, the quality of the result increases, and we get something mature and robust in days instead of years. > Alfredo > -- William Stein Associate Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://www.williamstein.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
