Comment (by jdemeyer):
Replying to [comment:32 ohanar]:
> 1. We adopt the route that we took with Pynac (as a fork of Ginac). Our
fork might in the future become tightly coupled with Sage, but we maintain
it as a separate package outside of Sage.
One thing I don't like is that this will mean essentially unreviewed code
in Sage.
From a practical point of view, there is not much difference between code
in the Sage library and code in some upstream project which is only used
in Sage.
But the code in the Sage library is supposed to be reviewed, while code in
upstream projects is normally not reviewed (if people are using upstream
outside of Sage, that means at least that the code is tested).
To be honest, I also don't have an optimal solution. Maybe that's why you
should ask for feedback on `sage-devel`.
