Hello folks,

this is 2.11.alpha2. It is a little later than I had hoped and
planned mostly due to the fact that Easter and Spring break
put somewhat of a damper on development. So far we merged 111
patches into this release.

There were fixes all over the map. This build should now also
build fine on OSX 10.5.2 and higher. If you had some major
feature merged in this release please add some info about it
at the "Sage 2.11 Release Tour" wiki page located at

   http://wiki.sagemath.org/sage-2.11

This is likely the last release before 2.11.final unless we
hit some major show stopper. Please build, doctest and report
any issue you hit in this thread. But I am sure by now you
know the drill :=)

Please also correct and spelling issues as well as wrongly
assigned credit in the list below.

Cheers,

Michael
