Thank you both for your answers. I think what I will do for now is add QuaGroup to gap_packages, which I think will be the easiest thing for me to implement the interface I want, and liealgdb to database_gap. I will also add François's instructions to the top-level Sage doc for the trivial to i

[sage-devel] Sage packages for GAP packages

2016-06-24 Thread Travis Scrimshaw
Hey all, So I am wanting to do implement an interface to the optional GAP package QuaGroup, which will require another optional Sage package. Yet there are also a number of other GAP packages that might be useful to a number of people (e.g., SLA, hecke, liealgdb, all of the various HomAlg pkg
