Certainly a lot is going on in the Axiom project but there has not
been any recent offi/ial release and corresponding tarball.
Currently there are four versions to choose from in the source code
repositories Gold (oldest;. Silver (trunk of svn repository at
SourceForge). build-improvements, and wh-sandbox, plus a recent fork
of the Axiom project called FriCAS that is based on a different
development philosophy. Please ask if need more information.
thanks for the answer!
I've read through the axiom-book, and it looked quite good, until
I realised that this anti-syntax like in python is used: That's
a show-stopper. In principle, of course, such indentation-games
should be only part of the user-interface, and one should be
able to go to the level of the real syntax and use brackets
as usual (or treat it as a different user interface)
--- but unfortunately I have never seen it, and so I
fear that also Axiom only accepts input in that indentation-format?

Hi,
I'm in the process of choosing a new
computer algebra system, to be integrated
into the generative (active) C++ library
I'm developing. Being appalled by Sage
because of their programming language (python),
I tried Maxima, which is kind of fun, the good
olden Lisp days, but it seems that development
has stopped. By the way, I used to use mupad,
but since now there are no free versions of it anymore,
I have to use (and migrate to) a new system.
So well, what now surprises me with Axiom is that at
http://wiki.axiom-developer.org/AxiomSources
only a version from September 2005 is available (I mean
the tarball) ??
So has development of Axiom also stopped??? But according
to the mailing lists, there is still something going on?
