Please consider that every spkg has the potential of substantial maintenance associated with it, given that the spkg system wasn't designed to have thousands of standard spkg's at once. If you look at the entire code of speaklater.py, you'll see it is *shorter* than just the build/config code that we've written for some of the spkg's. -- William > > or > > [X] Import speaklater from sagenb > > The last of these seems easiest from the sagenb perspective, but maybe > sagenb developers have a more accurate take on this. > > -- > John > > -- > 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 -- William Stein Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org -- 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
