Good catch! I think this can be a short guide or something like a quick-start guide. I've made a link to that guide on the download page http://www.sagemath.org/download.html In your short guide, I added a link to the longer guide so people can get more detailed information on downloading and installing Sage. I've also put the said link on all mirror download pages. At the moment, only the mirror download pages on the master mirror have that link: http://www.sagemath.org/mirror/ But in a couple of hours, mirrors around the world should be in sync with the master mirror. Thank you very much for helping out with the documentation work. As you know, there are many ways in which one can contribute to making Sage better for beginners as well as advanced users. > Well, I should probably not use "Guide" in the URL.

It's a quick-fix slim guide with a link to a fatter, more verbose guide :-) -- Regards Minh Van Nguyen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
