I really agree with your comments. And in terms of "niche", I would add that Sage is actually becoming one for combinatorics. I don't say that everyone in combinatorics is using Sage but I know lots of people (including me) for whom it would be quite complicated to move to another language. And we do have lots of high skilled researcher that develop their newest algorithms into sage and not in the MMMs.
I also agree with externalization and larger communities. That is one of the reasons I was promoting PyCon here and why I'm organizing these PyCon Sage days. I think we have a lot to learn and gain from other python developers and projects. > For information: we will have a preparatory meeting for this grant > application on September 8-9th in Orsay.
