Hi:

First, i really enjoyed SD4 and am amazed by the talented undergrads and
grads involved with SAGE. I feel very honored to be part of it and to be
associated with each of you.

On a separate topic, I have a SAGE design question. I'm guessing it is
possible to
add a flag to "make", like "make with-fortran" which will try to compile scipy
if (say) gfortran is found but skip that otherwise. This way, scipy can be
included with SAGE until Josh finishes working out the bugs (I have
complete confidence
in him) for the compilation of scipy and the default install from source
process stays exactly the same, whether you have an internet connection or
not. Once Josh finishes his magic, then we can add the attempt to try to
download gfortran from the internet and then compile. With this added make flag,
Josh can ask for people on the list to try out and test his set-up and comment.
Any thoughts on this idea?
