Hi!

The history of #8972:

Opened 7 months ago

It was merged into sage-4.4.4.alpha0 by Mike Hansen 6 months ago, the
resolution set to "fixed". But the patch was immediately backed out by
Mike Hansen, because (apparently in combination with other patches) it
created doctest failures.

However, the resolution was not changed.

Subsequently, I solved the doctest problems and found that sage-4.4.2
with the page passes "sage -testall". So, I changed it to "needs
review".

Since then, nothing happened. I guess the reason is that the
resolution is still "fixed", which is plainly wrong. Namely, the
initial problem addressed by the ticket persists:
sage: R.<x> = ZZ[[]]
sage: (1/x).parent()
Laurent Series Ring in x over Integer Ring
sage: (x/x).parent()
Power Series Ring in x over Integer Ring

I think both parents are wrong - it should instead be "Laurent Series
Ring in x over Rational Field".

Can one of the administrators please take care of it and remove the
wrong resolution, so that it is officially open? I doubt that the
patch would still apply to sage-4.6, but let's try...

Cheers,
Simon
