I just had a look at boost, if we delete the documentation then it is 25MB. Without documentation and tests it is 15MB, though I'd rather have the tests included.
Although most of boost is headers, some libraries need to be compiled. The biggest question is probably if we want to build boost/Python, which is roughly the inverse of Cython: write Python objects in C++. Boost/Math/Special functions might be useful to avoid the shortcomings of the libc implementations on some platforms. -- 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
