That's not a good enough answer. Until now almost all code in libcsage and the main sage library has been new code we've written -- except a few exceptions, where we greatly regretted them greatly and moved the code out later. So from experience I'm very opposed to this code being in c_lib. I vote -1 to this code going into sage unless: (1) it is put in a separate spkg, and (2) the process of extracting glib-min from the official glib tarball is automated. -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
