Given the tensions, I'd be more careful here. We're really not too interested in opinions of random subscribers to sage-devel (I don't have enough rights to see who's there). We can instead use https://github.com/sagemath/sage/graphs/contributors (by the way, by looking at this list I found that johanrosenkilde works for GitHub now :-)) Dima > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "sage-devel" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/sage-devel/ea60ae31-33c6-45d3-86d5-4ca14169bcf0n%40googlegroups.com. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
