Well, a few project come to mind which are unlikely to be taken on by someone without funding because usually more pressing issues present themselves for one's own research: * fully utilise LinBox; expose its functionality (maybe someone working 2-3 month full-ish time?) * libGAP (6-12 month to greatly improve Sage's group theory functionality) * libSingular (6-12 months to greatly improve Sage's commutative algebra functionality) * libecl (I don't know how much work is needed to make it really smooth) * refactor/rewrite univariate polynomials (a lot there is still old inefficient code + base implementations) * MiniSat C++ interface + DIMAC CNF generic SAT-solver interface * Someone spending his/her time improving the reference manual + constructions etc (similar to the tutorial idea) * Addressing all/most of Yoav's threats reported in his report * Notebook scaling * Notebook LDAP etc. integration * modularisation of some of Sage's components, i.e. make it easier to take parts and re-use them elsewhere (too vague I guess) Just quick ideas, Martin -- name: Martin Albrecht _pgp: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x8EF0DC99 _otr: 47F43D1A 5D68C36F 468BAEBA 640E8856 D7951CCF _www: http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~malb _jab: martinralbre...@jabber.ccc.de --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
