Hi,

At a minimum, Sage-4.0 will be the following:

   1. doctest coverage of the core Sage library at 75%
   2. official "tier 1" support for Solaris

3. I would also like to see the default symbolics switch from
maxima-based to pynac, which would I think really clearly justify the
switch to 4.0, since it will have a *dramatic* impact on the usability
of Sage by many users (the speedup over maxima-based symbolics for
basic arithmetic is "orders of magnitude").

I think a very good target date for Sage-4.0 is May 15, 2009, which is
right before Sage Days 15.

Who is interested in helping make 1, 2, and 3 happen asap?
