Thanks! Pending some response from David Harvey, I've just gone ahead and done it: https://gitlab.com/sagemath/zn_poly All previous releases of zn_poly can be found in the repository's tags. I've gone ahead and incorporated all the existing patches from Sage, the patch I need for Cygwin, and a couple other small patches for now. Will also add some documentation updates a bit later if and when a release is made from this repository. > On Fri, Sep 7, 2018 at 9:53 AM Erik Bray <erik.m.b...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Hi all, >> >> Does anyone know what that current status is of the upstream zn_poly >> package?
