I'll second the fact that coercion is not going to be done by the 3.0.2 release cycle, but hopefully soon after that. I should be able to work on it a bit this week, but maybe next week we could give it a big push and try to get it (mostly) wrapped up. Also, we would greatly appreciate any

I'm not going to be able to work much more on coercion until next week, and I don't get the impression that Robert has much time this week either. It's probably best to put coercion off until after 3.0.2. David On Mon, May 5, 2008 at 11:44 AM, mabshoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello folks

Your question is equivalent to, "Do we want to allow people to charge money for running Sage, but not redistributing it?" I say, yes. Imagine a private contractor who uses Sage. Perhaps this person modifies their version of Sage to include a proprietary algorithm. Then, they charge their cl
