Also, regarding 2, I don't think it's just removing old assumptions. There is a lot of potentially very constructive work to be done in new assumptions. It has a decently simple/extensible design and can be taken in a few interesting directions.
Oh yes, absolutely. But the main problem I see with the "new" assumptions system currently is this: it is not used throughout sympy, and so is a second-class citizen. As long as this stands, few people will be willing to work on it, and it will not be obvious how useful smallish changes are to sympy as a whole.
Basically, my *main* intention with this project would be to make the new assumptions a first-class, core citizen of sympy (so to speak), and removing the old assumptions is simply the most obvious way of achieving this.

I think it's very important, needs both the dedication of a GSoC student and the experience of a veteran. It's a rare combination. I also think it's both a fascinating topic intellectually and a real engineering challenge. That being said I'm confident that your other proposals will also be of high quality. I suspect that your preference will be the deciding factor. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
