Hello folks, here goes 3.3.alpha0. It was a lot longer than I thought, but the ReST patches seemed to have slowed down things combined with the start of the new year. Either way, it seems that we are back to brisk development speed. The alpha is *huge* and centers around three major improvements:
* the switch to MPIR * the merge of TinyMCE coupled with a cleanup of all the java script in the ext repo being moved to spkgs * out-of-the box Solaris build support on x86 that will probably work provided you use the toolchain I mentioned in the other threads There are also the usual improvements all over the place and I guess someone needs to start in the Sage 3.3 release tour in the wiki [hint, hint :)] Note that this is *build* support for Solaris, to get a decent result for doctesting one needs to apply about a 100 line patch that will be merged later on in the 3.3 release cycle as I clean up the various patches. Sympow is also not working yet on Solaris x86 out of the box, but the fix is in the que. Note that on Sparc all but one spkg should build and the offending one that fails (clisp) I have as a binary. But clisp will be gone in the next alpha, too, so things should be really smooth on Solaris. The OSX 64 bit support only get partially merged and eight essential tickets did not get in due to lack of time and because alpha0 was already huge. The timeline for 3.3 will stretch past the end of SD 12 since it is pointless to even attempt a release while roughly two dozen Sage devs compete for the most bugs fixed over a couple days. So it seems likely that 3.3 will be quite a large release and hopefully also a very nice one. At the moment it is unclear if ReST will go into 3.3 right before SD 12 or if it will be bumped to 3.4. Right now Mike Hansen is rebasing the ReST patches against 3.3.alpha0 so that at least the option is open. As usual there are sources as well as a binary sage.math-only release at http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/release-cycles-3.3/ You can as usual upgrade by running ./sage -upgrade http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/release-cycles-3.3/sage-3.3.alpha0/ The size of the tarball has gone up due to merges of the javascript spkgs, but once we nuke the ext repo we will see a significant size reduction again. By now all the java as well as javascript code is counted twice in the ext repo since it was checked in and then delete again from the repo. Please build test as usual and let us know about doctest failures. I am leaving for SD 12 in about 10 hours, so there won't be another alpha until probably the first day of SD 12.
