Hi, I have permission from the author of Tachyon to forward his message below to the Sage list. He's basically interested in whether there is _anything_ he could do to make Tachyon more useful for Sage. See below.

To: William Stein <wst...@gmail.com> Hi William, I'm in the process of doing a bunch of updating of the Tachyon header files and documentation and thought I'd send a quick ping. I was wondering if the SAGE project wants or needs anything changed or improved in the Tachyon APIs, since I'm already doing some significant improvements for other projects. I was also curious what portions of the Tachyon APIs are exposed in SAGE now, and whether it might be time to update SAGE to be able to take advantage of various new Tachyon features such as ambient occlusion lighting and other improvements that may not be exposed in the current versions SAGE. I would also be happy to have a look at your existing Tachyon code and see if I notice anything that might be added or improved if you can tell me where to look for it.
