Hi !

Thank you all for your very interesting answers !
[by the way, and don't know if my reply is posted on the right list...]

My first conclusions are that :

** one should avoid translating all functions' name and parameters to
french (update problems, etc)

** Windows port is not at all a priority : the best configuration for
me seems to be a central server (Linux ?) and clients using firefox
(linux, mac, W$)
Maybe, a commercial and cheap service is possible for schools really
afraid by administering such a client/server solution.
Maybe a french university or administration could handle that... in the end

** A good tutorial is needed, urgently. Ooops, Sorry : there are
already VERY good tutorials for SAGE beginners but something in french
AND of a lower math level is needed. Some kind of collection of
tutorials, each focusing on a specific math/SAGE aspect. Learning
python and SAGE by bit.

** Certainely, a french version of the description of the most
important and used functions. And don't know if that should be called
i18n ? For example, i have in mind the GDM Login Manager which has an
xml file with "Welcome on %n" translated in nearly any language...
Would that slow down too much the notebook ?
Is it easy to do and maintain ?

** a 3D GUI for plotting and animation....
Could we use Blender Python API for that ? It's an open source software...


but these conclusions might evolve in a close future...

I need feedback anyway. And I don't know if the work is hard or very hard...

Thanks to all
Philippe Saadé
