That's an *extremely* good idea!

Maybe we should have "The Sage Notebook" as the mentoring organization
instead of Sage, given that every project idea so far has involved it?

Here are some more ideas:

* get interacts working in the IPython html notebook (not exactly Sage, but very closely related, and likely far more reaching than a Sage notebook project)

* python->javascript translator so we can have *real* interaction (e.g., convert a symbolic expression to javascript, so the interact is totally computed in the browser, for simple interacts)

* the usual: folders/tags/some method for organization, migrate to vastly different architecture for notebook (like ipython 0.12 or the sage cell architecture), webgl frontend for 3d graphics with all the trappings

Sage projects:

* get fast_callable into shape, including a fortran backend (I was really impressed with Oscar's demonstrations the other day). See http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5572; the sky is the limit for this as far as low-level expression optimizations too)

* overhaul 2d graphics to be consistent, take advantage of matplotlib much more, etc. Introduce svg or html5 frontends for matplotlib that make interactive browser graphics easier (like interacts)

* webwork/sage integration

* coercion system printing framework, like David Roe has long advocated

Thanks,

Jason
