I read W. Stein's blog on why he thinks Sage is failing since it isn't on par with Maple, Mathematica and other Ma*'s *now*.
I teach high schoolers and college students. At that level Sage is more than adequate as a replacement for all Ma*'s now. If it encourages anybody......I think the problem is a lot of the core developers are light years ahead of the rest of the world in their advanced cutting edge math knowledge. For us mere mortals, Sage has definitely helped humanity and will continue to. Also, what percent of present and future Sage users do you think are in the "mere mortals" group? 90%? 99%? Imagine a few billion poor students in third world countries all having access to quality computer algebra assisted math instruction thanks to Sage! We should all wish to make such an impact on the world!!! Please everyone stop getting down because Sage isn't on top of the hill for the advanced <5% of users. The world needs and wants Sage. It elevates the entire human race. Sincerely, Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
