I have finally gotten sage-mode working (I think) with the new python.el which 
will be included in Emacs 24.2.  For that reason I am ready to "release" it to 
a wider audience, in preparation for sage-mode becoming standard.  My plans are 
that 0.8 become an optional package after some testing and then, depending on 
bug reports/feature requests, 0.8 or 0.9 would become a standard package.

I'm asking for any one who uses sage-mode regularly to please try the new spkg 
with

sage -f http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/iandrus/sage_mode-0.8.spkg

If you have any problems or suggestions let me know either on sage-devel, on 
bitbucket [1], or on trac ticket #13182 [2].  Since I use the very latest Emacs 
I would especially appreciate people with older versions to test to make sure I 
didn't break something that way.

Note that the name has changed from sage-mode-0.7 to sage_mode-0.8 (hyphen to 
underscore) since sage uses the hyphen to separate the package from the 
version.  That's why currently `sage -i sage-mode` doesn't work, but `sage -i 
sage` does!

Mostly 0.8 consists of bug fixes and new python.el support, but there are a few 
new features as well:

1. Support for SageTeX when using AUCTeX—automatically detects when Sage needs 
to be run.
2. sage-fix-doctest-at-point which is just fun (thanks to Martin Albrecht for 
the idea).

Thanks,
Ivan
