Hi, they are basically adopting an old script to read in trac and git data and output a "traditional" text file. I guess they'll write this faster than we are mailing around here. Said that, there is actually a gaping lack where you can help if you are motivated enough: This release log lists all changes in a rather boring way. Some of these changes are actually really cool new features, but they get buried down in that list. What would be helpful is a blog post, where important new features are presented (description, copy/paste of some example code, screenshot, plot, ... ). This blogpost is then tagged best with a label "sage" and these "sage" posts will then be automatically included here: http://planet.sagemath.org/ (essentially, the atom/rss feed for only this "sage" tag is copied into this page) I've cross-posted this mail to the sage-marketing list, since it is actually about dissemination. ... and now i've gone through the list and stumbled about these uncut diamonds: http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15150 <- combinatorics, i think http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15433 <- OSX 10.9 port (important) http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/9411 <- elliptic curves http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/10132 <- geometry, huge patch http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15392 <- maybe also interesting? http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/12083 <- cool TikZ plots ! http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15311 <- Hall Algebra? http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/14998 <- group theory http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15322 <- combinatorics, some addiitonal stuff http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/10358 <- OEIS fixed Of course, I'm sure you do not know much about all this. Neither do I. Still, I think it's possible to write something up by going through the doctests. I can also offer to help if we share this somehow.
