David, if you have time, can you expand on these projects like I did, e.g., fill in: GENERAL CONTEXT: PREREQUISITES: MENTOR: BACKUP MENTOR: -- William > * sparse matrices: Sage currently uses generic sparse matrices for almost > every base ring. > * cleaning up coercion: many parts of Sage still use the old coercion > system.
