Hello,
it could be very useful for undergraduate students to have a light version
of sage so as to not have such a huge program to install.

Is there anything planed around this ?

You might investigate using the IPython notebook with sympy, numpy, and
scipy, matplotlib, and pandas (the so-called "scipy stack" [1]).  That
will get you a lot of undergraduate symbolic calculus, linear algebra,
etc.  A bonus is that you can install that package on Windows.

yes, this looks very good, except that it (probably?) lacks almost any sort of
"non-linear" algebra.

Certainly it's deficient in number theory or abstract algebra. But it does go a long way for scientific computing and many undergraduate subjects, and it's certainly a lighter installation (indeed, it's mostly a very small subset of Sage).

Thanks,

Jason
