I'm pretty sure Google would be happy if we (completely) switched to them. Personally, I e.g. see no reason for having http://groups.google.com/group/sage-trac/ either, which I guess few people using trac are aware of. In addition to what Dave said, not everybody will be bothered or worried by Google collecting more and more "information" (whatever that means or how valuable that might be to someone else), but as I'm frequently told we shouldn't put the hurdles to high... -Leif -- 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
