Great idea! Next step would allow the user to submit their new examples as a patch with one click (assuming they're novel enough to be worth including). >> And that wouldn't overload anything? > > It would probably right now. Hopefully in the future... Cycles well spent IMHO, though actually getting things to scale proportional to the resources at our disposal is (near-term) future work. On this note, I love the "single cell server" box on the main page. My only complaint is that I sat there quite a while waiting for it to give me the answer, we should evaluate the code right away, not expect the user to click "eval" and then have to click "evaluate" on the next page. - Robert -- To post to this group, send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
