Hi,
I just want to post to say thanks for all the excellent feedback
on the question I asked earlier. I think it is all very valuable,
even if some options aren't possible at present.
Regarding a native Windows port, such a thing would be wonderful to
have, but unfortunately it is *totally
Regarding Internet Explorer, the fact is it would
be 1-2 day's of work to make the SAGE notebook reasonably
usable from IE 7. Shift-enter would be replaced by
a submit button and some of the CSS would have to be
reworked, but otherwise most things would work. It hasn't
happened yet,

Now that the SAGE acronym has been dropped, I would recommend changing
the name to sagemath. This name matches the sagemath.org website, it
helps explain what sage is, and search engines will not return
unrelated sites if this name is used.
We bring this up every few months, and I maintain
This is kinda off the wall:
Mathematica, Maple, and Matlab don't have a lot of competition for
their keywords on Google, Yahoo, or MSN.
By offering a **very low bid** on each of the names, you could
probably put a message about the SAGE open source project on each of
their names. In addition,
Actually, to clarify and back up from the previous statement:
I don't know what the level of competition is for those keywords. I
thought it was low because Google didn't show a lot of ads, but that
could be an artifact of automated programs that only show ads that are
clicked on most frequently

Anyone who is an academic using SAGE should try to give a little talk
on it to your department (unneccessary at UW of course). I did this
and I generated a fair amount of interest from our grad students. The

FYI, the Linbox bug you and Gabe found has been fixed in svn Linbox,
so it will be fixed in SAGE in the not-too-distant future.

I think saying that Mathematica is the company that made that claim
about needing to know about internals is incorrect since Wikipedia
says that Mathematica is produced by Wolfram Research.
