Hello folks,

this is Sage 3.4.alpha0, more or less on time. We merged a massive
number of ReST patches (Mike Hansen) and additionally fixed a number
of long standing libSingular issues (Georg Weber, Carl Witty, William
Stein, Michael Abshoff) as well as also fixed the FC 9/10 out of
memory problem (Michael Abshoff, Georg Weber, Carl Witty, William
Stein). libSingular has also become significantly more useful on
OSX :)

One word about the ReST patches

 * Every patch was merged regardless of status and closed.
 * If you review such a ticket or find more issues in already merged
patches do not reopen such a ticket, but open a new ticket against 3.4
with appropriate summary
 * Do only review against 3.4.alpha0. If you merged ReST patches on
your owen they might be outdated, wrong, or I screwed up and merged
not every patch, etc.
 * If you have made comments please check that they got merged. There
are also some tickets where comments were made when patches had been
merged, so in that case please move the comments to a new ticket also.

What is broken?

 * -sdist produces archives with missing files, i.e. a MANIFEST.in
issue (#5363)
 * the doc repo is still there since removing it will involved
touching code in a lot of places. This will also cause doctest
failures with "make check" for example

All the bits as usual are in

  http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/release-cycles-3.4/

No bdist this time - build from sources!

Other than that nothing but trivial doctesting issues should pop up.
We will do another alpha/rc in 24 hours and polish the build system
issues we had not fixed in 3.3 yet (since we didn't do binaries) and
also merge more critical build and bug fixes.

Cheers,

Michael

Note: The credit for the ReST patches will be sorted out later since I
am leaving for the airport in 10 minutes :)
