Yes I "want to", but we better be careful until gfortran becomes ubiquitous, i.e., its in XCode on OS X and standard on Linux box. I.e., we should use g95 now, then switch to gfortran in a year or two. Users must always have the *option* to use gfortran instead of g95 very easily though, since some people consider the prebuilt g95 binary (or any binary for that matter) a huge evil security risk. > >> 2. atlas: should this be part of the sage build > >> Yes, definitely.
