It came to my attention a little while ago that Sage is applying to be
a Google Summer of Code mentoring organization, and soon after that I
discovered PYCA ( http://code.google.com/p/cellular-automata-sage-toolkit/
), a cellular automaton package written by Iztok Jeras which hasn't
seen very many recent changes. I'd like to implement all the planned
features listed on that Google Code page, along with
* algorithms like Hashlife ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashlife
),
* support for public repositories of patterns so that users can
import, run and edit/save well-known patterns (e.g. the Gosper glider
gun in Conway's Game of Life),
* lots of new visualization tools,
* an interactive editing/running area of unlimited size,
* and surely many other features and tools as I learn more about
cellular automata.
Would this be feasible as something to work on for GSoC? I'd also
like to know who might be available as a mentor for this project.
