Thanks!

I just finished reading the magma docs.
Good news -- I was wrong -- it's going to be a lot
of work but it's completely *reasonable* to make SAGE
functionality as powerful as MAGMA.  Making it as fast
is another matter... but that's for Bill Hart, etc., in the long
run.  But functionality wise it's quite possible given what
is in PARI.  It's just going to be a lot of work -- basically
adding lots of functions and structures for orders, ideals,
unit groups, etc.

Also, I think the best way is to *not* radically alter
what is there now, except to make arithmetic much
faster (via flint), and to add better support for orders.

More later.
