Good! One of the troubles we have is that we are trying to compare
results with Magma, but we are revealing a lot of bugs in Magma's
implementation (which I am duly reporting to Steve Donelly in Sydney).
For example, taking E=EllipticCurve('37a1') and S = set of the first n
primes, the numbers of S-integral points we find for n=0..7 are
5,7,8,9,10,10,11,11,11 while Magma gets 5,6,7,7,7,7,7,7,7 which is
rather bad (the time increases with #S, so it certainly helps to
ignore most of the primes in S).
I'm not sure if Simath counts as open source, probably not.
