Hey, you should be more kind to Tim and others :-) [...] | For example, there was a lot of discussion at the meeting about | implementing Padic integers as a computational domain in Sage. | I don't know anything about Padic integers but during a quick | presentation of the new Axiom interface that I wrote during | the coding sprints I demonstrated that Axiom actually already | implements at least one of the methods of representing Padics | that was being discussed.
