hi there, just to feed michael's motivation, let me insist that a Solaris version of SAGE would be fabulous. I'm thinking of using sage with our students here (it would at the very least teach them some python, which they will use in 'real life' (ie working for a company...) even if they eventually give up on maths!) I'm also trying to tell my colleagues about sage. The main obstacle, or rather the first, is that we are running Solaris...
(btw very interested in a binary for Solaris 10, on an x86, 64 bits if you have one...) anyway, keep up the good work! cheers pierre On Jul 20, 1:04 am, mabshoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED] dortmund.de> wrote: > On Jul 19, 9:36 am, Karen Bindash <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Karen, > > > Thank you very much for making me aware of this.
