If so, should I make it a package or patch?
Yes, absolutely. But make sure that you agree to license your work under GPLv2+ or a compatible license. So if I understand you correctly, your whole project is less than 1000 lines of code and documentation combined. In that case, a patch is more appropriate than a package. But you then need to figure out where to patch against. > I incorporated and repurposed a lot of Robert Bradshaw's complex_plot > code.

You can cite Robert to the effect that your code is based upon or portions of which are adapted from his complex_plot code. -- 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
