Comment:

 Hi Frédéric,

 Thanks for taking care of this problem.

 Here are a few remarks:

  - The field Author below is used to give credits after each release. You
    should put your real name here and not your login.

  - If you think returning a matrix over {{{QQ}}} is a bug, then you should
    make sure by a doctest that the bug is indeed fixed, indicating in
 comment
    the ticket number for this bug.

  - I can easily imagine use cases where the Moebius function is needed
 over a
    different ring (eg: Z2 or a polynomial field). What about having an
    optional argument {{{ring}}} with a default value {{{ZZ}}} to avoid
    changing the ring twice ? In this case for consistency,
    {{{.mobius_function_matrix()}}} should also take this optional
 parameter too.
    What do you think ?

 Right now, I'm having lunch, but I'll probably find the time to post a
 review
 patch this evening if you don't beat me. If you start working on it please
 put
 a message here so that we avoid doing it twice. Of course I'll do the
 same. In
 any case one of us will have to do some review and the other to write some
 code.

 Florent
