http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/release/sage-4.4.alpha1/sage-4.4.alpha1.tar sage.math binary: http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/release/sage-4.4.alpha1/sage-4.4.alpha1-sage.math.washington.edu-x86_64-Linux.tar.gz Upgrade path: http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/release/sage-4.4.alpha1/sage-4.4.alpha1/ -------------------------------- Release plan for Sage 4.4: Try to merge a few more tickets; the candidates now are #6245: make a custom infix operator decorator #8411: Branching rule fix and doc revision #8500: Add the set of TransitiveGroups #8713: Prepare the ground for moving Parent._an_element_ to Sets().ParentMethods Perhaps try to merge a few spkg's, like: #8700: the libpng-1.2.35.p0 in sage-4.4.alpha0 contains an extra copy of libpng-1.2.35! This one still needs review, but it should be easy to review and merge. Other candidates for merging are #4793: Update lcalc to the new upstream 1.23 [with spkg] #6456: Upgrade cvxopt in sage from 0.9 to 1.1.2 #8301: segfault in m4ri #8477: Force GNU make to build PALP serially #8605: upgrade SageTeX spkg to 2.2.5 #8192: Update PolyBoRi to newest upstream release #8453: Update PARI to 2.3.5 #8644: update pynac to 0.1.12 I tried merging all of these spkg's (at once) into 4.4.alpha1 on sage.math and ran into terrible problems; merging just the first five of them led to various problems on various skynet machines. So the list will likely be much smaller than this. It may even be empty. -------------------------------- Known issues: #8732: bug in new HMM code. This is a blocker. Please review it. Problems building cddlib on either a mixed-platform Fedora 10 machine (64- bit machine in a 32-bit NFS environment) or on t2.math (Solaris). There is a new spkg available which might fix this, but it needs review: <http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8730> This seems to fix my build problem on t2.math, but (with apologies to the author), it looks like a rather dangerous hack. -------------------------------- Please test and report all other issues. -------------------------------- Closed tickets: #6927: Extend CachedFunction to handle disk-cache #8414: lattice -> domain in weyl_groups.py #8488: Add support for @interact to the Sage library and module for a library of interacts #8493: Complex conjugation in Galois groups #8496: Implement canonical heights for elliptic curves over number fields #8505: random points on elliptic curve misses half the group #8524: DisjointUnionEnumeratedSets should have a private __classcall__ method #8557: is_singular method for projective plane curves #8574: Length of a finite word defined by an iterator is broken #8585: PermutationGroup and SymmetricGroup on the empty set #8649: to_tableau method broken for crystals of type B #8653: Command-line "advanced" help has wrong option name for randomized tests #8669: interrupting download in sage-spkg should delete the spkg file #8695: UniqueRepresentations implements __eq__ but not __ne__ #8705: Add sage_unittest to the reference manual #8706: sage-4.4.alpha0: numerical noise in chmm.pyx #8707: view(x) calls x._latex_() 5 times! #8709: polyhedra level set doctest failure #8711: fix warnings when building the ref manual (4.4.alpha0) Share and Enjoy. -- John -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
