Buildbots are fixed: http://buildbot.sympy.org/waterfall and I am now fixing the most urgent issues. Today I implemented "sympy.test()", see here for usage: http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1025#c14 Then there are couple issues with my patch waiting for a review, e.g.: http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=602#c25 http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1108 Please review. Next I'd like to ask you for your opinion on the "rename canonize to eval" issue here: http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=777 And if you have some time, please try to fix some easy to fix issues that are also marked as 0.6.3: http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/list Let's fix at least some and release. I'll myself concentrate on the QA, e.g. remove the py.test dependency from buildbots, as it's really annoying, see here for the steps that you currently need to do in order to test sympy in python: http://wiki.sympy.org/wiki/Buildbot#local_installation You need to install zlib, then setuptools and then py.test. This sucks if you do it for the 6th time (like I had to do for the buildbots). If my patches in the issue 1025 are accepted, all of this won't be necessary anymore. Just regular python install, even a crippled one (e.g. without the zlib module and couple others). After the release, I'll revive my documentation efforts with the mathematica-like docs, this is really important. I hope that if people like it, more people will join and help with the docs. And finally, Cython (development version) now supports pure Python syntax. I haven't played with it yet, but this is the way to go. We'll start Cythonizing the core using pure Python decorator syntax, thus we'll just have one code base, that runs everywhere, and optionally we could compile it to a very fast C.
