sagecell.makeSagecell is already polling to see whether it is loaded; thats of course totally fugly but should work. You just have to make sure that it is defined. If its only defined once a requirejs module loads then you don't have control over when. Instead move the window.sagecell = window.

Re: [sage-edu] Why do Jupyter notebooks running Sage 6.9 kernel cause issues with SageMath Cloud's 6.10 kernel?

2016-02-16 Thread Volker Braun
We used to include the version in the kernel name (up until sage-6.9, I guess) but then changed to "sagemath". Presumably this is why SMC calls the kernel "sagemath" nowadays, too. There are obvious pros and cons to storing the version, not every sage code ever written will run with every Sage
