I see that the Sage Constructions document [1] serves a similar purpose to my proposal for a new "Sage HOWTOs" section. D. Joyner and R. Miller has written a coding theory cookbook chapter [2] that hasn't been updated for about a year now. I provided a patch for that chapter over a year ago, but not much else has been done with that chapter since. > and the other project (Sage tutorials? something like > that, but I can't find it on the wiki right now) which already had > some significant content. Are you referring to the Sage primers from Sage Days 13 [3]? It took me a while to locate that wiki page. I went through all the past Sage Days workshops in order to locate that, because I faintly remember that the wiki page of Sage primers resulted from a Sage Days workshop. That page is now linked to from the main wiki page [4]. > Perhaps all these things should be > coordinated/merged/aware of each other. Yes, the Sage primers and Constructions document should be coordinated in some way. On the Sage primers wiki page [3], I have added a note about polishing up those primers for inclusion in the Sage Constructions [1] document. In retrospect, I think there is no need for a new section called "Sage HOWTOs" since the Sage Constructions document already serves as a repository of howtos. But I still would like to get people's comments about sections in the Sage Constructions document that make use of optional packages. My preference is to allow sections making use of optional packages, but those sections must clearly state that optional packages be installed beforehand.
