We already have 214 standard packages. That's 214 pieces of software copy & pasted into the sage releases... and 214 SPKGs that the sage developers need to keep updating, and 214 distro packages that every distro maintainer needs to keep track of as dependencies of the sage package. (Even that is not an honest accounting, since a few of our jupyter dependencies are patched to hide the enormous dependency trees that distribution packagers cannot avoid.) More-itertools looks small and useful, but some day we have to stop allowing that number to grow faster than anyone can chase it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
