[sage-devel] Upgrade sphinx to 1.0.6

Hello all, On a lark (and a tip from sphinx-dev) that upgrading sphinx would solve some of my intersphinx cross-reference issue I have created an spkg (and a patch to sage_autodoc) that upgrade sphinx from 0.6.3 to 1.0.6, I have created a ticket in the trac ( #10620) and uploaded both files to

2011-01-12 Thread Felix Lawrence
Should conversion from numpy arrays/matrices to lists and sage vectors/ matrices be implemented by a .sage() method on the numpy array/ matrix? This is more consistent with the behaviour interface objects. diagonal_matrix(), matrix(), etc could then outsource the conversion steps to .sage(), rath
