Yes, these would be cool, I'll add that to my list. > Jason > > > > > -- La brigade SnW veut vous recruter - http://brigade.snw.googlepages.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
