If we're moving away from providing binaries, then this is a good way to go, well organized. Below a few minor notes about the sagemath-tobias link, I hope they are helpful. My apologies in advance for any bike shedding, though I tried to be pretty concrete.
1. Is it possible to have a short bullet list for the three/four options * Linux * Mac * Windoze * Cloud that link to those, immediately below "Where would you like to run SageMath?"? I'm pretty sure Sphinx makes that possible. Even a little bit of needed scrolling leads to people just not caring. 2. I'd also recommend Linux be last - this page is designed for people who are not comfortable installing source software, I guess. (Similarly, no development as first option?) e. Alternately, one could have the first decision point be "develop or not" - that would be my preference, but obviously would be an annoying bit of work with perhaps not that much marginal gain. Still, that seems to be the great divide in Sage, not so much platform, and would allow for people who want to just use Sage in the cloud to see that option very early. It's not like people on (say) Windows don't also use the cloud, so the four-way partition could be somewhat misleading to less careful readers (which many internet users are when in a hurry) in practice, though of course not in principle. 3. Do the binaries/packaging allow for all optional packages and/or using Cython/Fortran? I recall this coming up not only on this list, but also sometimes when I've tried to show people Cython usage as a "great feature" of Sage that doesn't work in some environments. If the answer to any of these is not, you might need another part of the decision tree, or at least a link to something about optional packages in each "no development" part. 4. A link to some Windows doc on what WSL is would probably be pretty helpful, since presumably a lot of Windows users who like doing math have never heard of it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
