Hello all,

I've been thinking a bit about third-party packages for SAGE primarily
because I have some software that I'd like to release, but it is too
specialized for inclusion into the main branch.  I think that when
SAGE gets more popular, this will become more of an issues. Some of
the requirements I can envision are the following:

-- easy to install (spkgs should be fine for this)
-- easy to load from within sage ( from sage.third_party.foo import * )
-- handles upgrades nicely ( either they will not be overwritten
during upgrades or they will automatically be re-pulled from somewhere
and installed again with the new version)
-- ...

What are people's thoughts on this?

--Mike
