2008-04-21 Thread mabshoff
Hello folks, here goes Sage 3.0.rc1. We are down to one blocker, i.e. the "-O0" fallback for clips in case of failure. Other than that this release should build and test fine. The 3.0 release is imminent, so if you find anything you better be quick. The plan is to follow up the 3.0 release with

2008-04-19 Thread mabshoff
Folks, here we go with 3.0.alpha6. It should have been out a day or two ago, but I had some slight cold to get over and I also spend most of my working time on Linux/Itanium and Linux/Sparc. The changes from alpha5 are fairly small and things have stabilized. It does look like we will hit most of

2008-04-15 Thread mabshoff
Hello folks here we go with 3.0.alpha5. So, that happened to 3.0.alpha4? It was never announced in public since it was a snapshot I initially considered potentially unstable, but that didn't happen. We have closed a total of *221* tickets so far. This alpha should build and doctest without any si

Hello folks, here is Sage 3.0.alpha1. The bad news upfront: The gcc 4.3 compiler support didn't make it since the updated Singular SPKG is delayed due to some bugs. Martin Albrecht is working on it, so hopefully it will be in alpha2. We merged a massive number of tickets hours before alpha1 mostl
