Does the following looks sensible to all of you: - By, say, Wednesday, each category reviewer makes sure to glance through his patch, and report whether he sees any definitive show stopper: that is something that absolutely have to be fixed before integrating the code into Sage, and that is not easy to fix. He also report an estimate of the date by which he can complete the full review. - Accordingly, it's decided whether the category code is the official goal (with python 2.6) for Sage 4.1. And whether there should be an intermediate 4.0.3. - If yes (which I very much hope!), we all work hard to tidy up the easy things to fix. Cheers, Nicolas -- Nicolas M.
