Another suggestion. Has anyone thought about having SagePapers TM,
which would be an arxiv of both technical mathematical papers and
expository notes written entirely in Sage worksheets?
This would be really cool, as it would allow the reader of the paper
to play with the Sage/GP/Magma/whatever examples included in the
paper. It would make refereeing computations easy too.
Heh, when collaborating on worksheets is allowed, multi-author papers
would be a breeze. It opens up so many possibilities.
