Gaby, What is the current status of build-improvements and compiling Axiom on MAC OSX? Does this work out of the box, i.e. configure && make? Does hyperdoc and graphics work? I am not able to test this at the SourceForge farm. I know someone working on Sage who would very much like to run Axiom o

Rep and Per are good for many things, but it might be worth adding a shorthand for 'my representation is just a record'. Don't think of Rep as an instance variable - it's a mapping between your type and an underlying one. That said, a default representation of Rep + Record might be an interestin

Gaby, If you plan to go ahead with the proposed documentation of "new boot" (aka. SHOE) I would be delighted to help. Perhaps you have said before, but could you please explain how to call SHOE from the command line? What I would like to do is to provide a environment in the Axiom Wiki, e.g. \
