I don't mind posting them here.  It is very possible that many of the
"bugs" we are finding have to do with our using the build system in
buggy ways.  I will do that later today.  But for following the
tickets on Sage's trac system, it would be great to have an account
when you get a chance.

I think this model makes a lot of sense.  It would allow us to
essentially build our own Sage/SPD versions like we want/need, it
would improve the Sage build system and in the long run it (hopefully)
would impose much of an additional burden on the the Sage devs.  In
the meantime Ondrej and I will try hard to feed our work back into
Sage.

Great!
