Hello, the release cycle has started and so far only 5 tickets were closed. Since we update clisp (which is tricky) and also updated cremona.spkg to take over the functionality of mwrank this might be a little rough to get right on the first try. The tarball is available at
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/sage-2.9.alpha0.tar [170MB] - the size increase is due to the new clisp.spkg. We are investigating if we can shrink the package down again to its original size. We need more reviews for patches tagged against 2.9 and later milestones. A list of tickets with patches: #444 [with patch] solve the rubik's cube fast! #980 [with patch] random_element() for multivariate polynomials #1119 [with patch] EllipticCurve.random_element for char=2 #1162 [with patch] fix issues in RealField <-> RQDF conversions #1237 [with patch] E.torsion_order() fails on curves with big coefficients !! #1239 [with patch] Wrap Simon's new gp two descent code #1267 [with patch] documentation for piecewise does not show up in notebook #1340 [with patch] %cython broken if directory name contains spaces #1363 [with patch] complex intervals should have a sqrt() method #1393 [with patch] is_integral_domain may return incorrect answer #1394 [with patch] make plot documentation readable in graph.py #1395 [with patch] notebook(directory="foo/") misbehaves #1404 [with patch] bug in %latex feature in the notebook Tickets that ought to be invalidated: #1130 [with patch] point counting for elliptic curves over non-prime finite fields Tickets with negative review: #1155 [with bundle, with negative review] PermutationGroup coercion bug #1171 [with patch, with negative review] _new() method for quadratic field elements #1186 [with patch, with negative review] Charpoly of a matrix of polynomials sometimes breaks #1189 [with patch, with negative review] SymPy <-> SAGE automatic conversion #1258 [with bundle, with negative review] additions and changes to linear_codes Please make sure patches are relative to 2.5.18 or a later alpha relase. Obviously patches are welcome for tickets without solution.
