It is my pleasure to announce Sage-6.1.beta5. As usual, you can get it either from our git server/github mirror as the "develop" branch, the "6.1.beta5" tag, or by downloading the source tarball from
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/release/sage-6.1.beta5/sage-6.1.beta5.tar.gz One notable new feature is that there is now a "configure" script if you download the source tarball, so we recommend that you use the standard build steps tar xf sage-6.1.beta5.tar.gz cd sage-6.1.beta5 ./configure make If you use the git branch, note that the configure script is NOT checked into the repository. It is auto-generated by the ./bootstrap script, as usual in autotool projects. So in this case you would run git clone git://github.com/sagemath/sage.git -b develop cd sage ./bootstrap ./configure make If you don't have autotools or if this was too long/complicated to read you can still just run "make" and it will work.
