pysmalljac, which builds smalljac and makes it usable from Python. It
would be on github and pypi. That's how most Sage development should be
done. What a monster I've created by following the Magma way of doing
things instead of the standard open source best practices...

In fact, Drew reminds me that smalljac currently doesn't even support
genus 3; however, this should be added in the near future (i.e., sometime
this year).
