Instead of removing it completely, how about just turning it off? I.e., don't ask for an email on login, and don't send an email. By the way, the confirmation email system isn't used now simply because one year ago when we were writing the notebook we implemented the minimum needed for the task at hand, and the confirmation system just wasn't needed. And we never got around to finishing it. It took *days* of hard work by Bobby Moretti (and Yi Qiang) just to implement what's there right now. It certainly shouldn't not be removed from the codebase -- that's silly. -- william --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
