One other thing -- I keep feeling I should write a more formal textbook based on those worksheets from 480a. I'm teaching the course April - June, so having it done by then would be the goal. This would be the sort of thing that gets done and is hopefully very stable once finished. It would I think be officially published, but with a publisher that lets one keep distribution rights so we can include the book with Sage. Anyway, the main reason I'm mentioning this is that it would be cool if could launch in 3 languages: English, French, and Spanish. So people interested in translating to French or Spanish (obviously not me), please email me, so I can ask you later. -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
