Hi! The history of #8972: Opened 7 months ago It was merged into sage-4.4.4.alpha0 by Mike Hansen 6 months ago, the resolution set to "fixed". But the patch was immediately backed out by Mike Hansen, because (apparently in combination with other patches) it created doctest failures. However, th

Being able to test a single spkg on the most recent alpha/beta/rc would be very useful and not produce much load. I take it that this in not possible right now, but could probably be done easily. I find the current spkg review process is essentially a catch-22: nobody wants to give a positive revi

Thanks for the pointers. If I'm understanding correctly, everyone is in favor of using the default containment inherited from Parent; so that we would have sage: 3 in PolynomialRing(QQ,'a,b') True sage: PolynomialRing(QQ,'a').gen() in PolynomialRing(QQ,'a,b') True (currently both return False)

The addition of the buildbot to Sage should be a good thing. But it seems to get very little use. I know the Wireshark projects runs their buildbots 24/7.
