The EU "Molto" project has created a prototype of getting natural language
to interface with Sage - see the [http://www.molto-project.eu/wiki/d62
-prototype-comanding-cas starting webpage]. This can be used as
* [http://www.molto-project.eu/wiki/living-deliverables/d62-prototype-
comanding-cas/gfsage-natural-language-interface-sage an interface]
* [http://www.molto-project.eu/wiki/using-natural-language-inside-sage an
evaluation percent directive within Sage].

This is accomplished by some pretty minor changes in setup.py and adding a
couple interface files in various places. We would *not* make this a
standard package, ever, because the [http://www.molto-project.eu/wiki
/living-deliverables/d62-prototype-comanding-cas/gfsage-natural-language-
interface-sage dependencies] include Haskell and the grammatical
framework [http://www.grammaticalframework.org/ GF].
So why not?
