I already posted on the ticket that I'm against the current patch at 9704. I hate changing top-level functions in Sage willy-nilly with no major benefit. I want Sage to be stable. There is no way that changing "trace" to "trace_execution" (or the worse and wrong "backtrace", which makes no sense) results in major benefit. - 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org
