(http://fossme.bprim.org ) It was at undergraduate and post graduate level, mainly for research students and college teachers from Mathematics from entire county (India). We got hudge respose for workshop on CAS in which we included SAGE and other maths software like maxima, GAP, parigp etc. Mostly we used these software from SAGE notebook. Here is the website of the workshop : http://fossme.bprim.org/workshop-computer-algebra-system Maths researchers found it very useful. I will be interested and looking forward for such activity and help in this regard. I strongly believe that SAGE will help to make maths more clear and interesting on any level. -- Manjusha S.
