Do Russians care about open source -- e.g., one can change Sage much more than one can change Mathematica. Also, Sage has vastly more capabilities in number theory and algebraic combinatorics than Mathematica, but this will only matter to specialists. Do Russians get Magma free (Magma is another closed source commercial program that Sage competes with)? I'm curious, since I've never seen pirated cracked versions of Magma in the wild. (I'm not asking for a copy, since I have a valid Magma license already.) > But the interest in Sage exists. What spurs the interest in Sage in this environment.

I think the work you're doing is very valuable to the Sage project. william --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
