Hello,

let's forget 3.2.1.alpha1 ever happened :)

3.2.1.alpha2 fixes the build issues from its predecessor (I did a full
build cycle before announcing here, so no need to do an alpha3 in the
next 24 hours) and adds a couple additional patches. One very
interesting patch set is #463 by William which will allow

 ./sage -upgrade foo.org/home/bar/sage-3.4.5.alpha2

in the future, i.e. you can upgrade to any install either via
webserver or even by directory on a local disk. But nothing like that
is bug free and since the infrastructure to do the in place upgrade to
other versions isn't in anything but 3.2.1.alpha2 yet the upgrade is
still a little rough - see http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/4638
for details and a story on how to get from 3.2 to 3.2.1.alpha2 - it
isn't for the faint of heart. Once we have 3.2.1.alpha3 it will be
interesting to see how the upgrade from 3.2.1.alpha2 works. The
sources are in the usual place at

http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/release-cycles-3.2.1/

Please build, test and report issues as usual. This release stands a
chance to actually compile on Fedora Core 10, but we will see. No
binary for sage.math until someone fixes #4317 :)

To our American Brethren: Happy Turkey day.

Cheers,

Michael
