Dear sage-devel,
in this thread there were some comments concerning very general
aspects of human interaction and value. I am no mathematician and I am
no programmer, nevertheless I feel urged to voice my opinion.
A technical project in the scope of sage is also intrinsically tied to
a social pro

Inspired by Robert Bradshaw's link to his patchbot patches [1], I looked
through my own and see two easy reviews. These both could be merged for
4.6.2:

You'd have to ask the Amazon people, but Jeff sounded pretty excited
about getting Sage running on EC2 -- so my guess is that if you're
running a
Ivan,
I am aware that you've been working on this. However, I have not had
any time to look at it. If things go well with my classes and
administrative responsibilities in the next couple of weeks I may get
a chance. I am very glad you have worked on this.

Tim,
Your point that the code should be well structured and documented is
important for long term usefulness. However, even well documented
code will not remain useful if someone does not maintain it. One of
the goals of the leaders of the SAGE project should be to groom new
leaders.

Would this be a possibility for the public notebook servers, or just

Get the quad-core (8 virtual threads). If you want to save a few bucks, go
with AMD. The i5/i7 labels are mostly useless, for example some "i7" are
dual-core.

We are planning to use sage for a calculus course,and got some money
to buy a dedicated computer. There will be around 20 students using it
simultaneously, doing mostly simple computations on it.
We have offers for an intel core i5 (4 threads) and a core i7 (8
threads), both with 16 gigs of RAM).

As one of the "non-mathematicians" (as a physical chemist who teaches
quantum mechanics and kinetics = nonlinear differential equations and
systems of differential equations, I'm not sure that is quite the
right term, but I think you get the idea), I thought I should chime
in.
1) I think SAGE has
Hello all,
I'm glad we've had a chance to think about this, and I hope we keep
thinking about it, but I hope we can also *take action!* The current
status is this:
* The sage add on Meta Stackexchange exists -- go vote for it if you
want to :)
http://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/74983/
But it's not too hard to build up the 15 points necessary to vote -- I
managed to do it yesterday. As I understand it, there are no
restrictions on developers voting for projects they're currently
involved with (that is -- go vote for sage!).
One minor issue: I noticed that we have no hover text.
¿Does it must be in France? Maybe i could organize it in Zaragoza
(Northern Spain).

My recent work has been in to speed up a lot of modular symbols
related code, especially the linear algebra it depends on. Not
everything is up to standars to get it into sage but should be in the
near future.
