A page to summarise and coordinate SAGE development activity.

== Core arithmetic team ==

David Harvey, Martin Albrecht, Joel Mohler, Robert Bradshaw, William Stein

 * Develop new {{{__mul__}}} semantics for rings/algebras using something like {{{ToyQuarternionAlgebraElement}}} as a test case.
 * Migrate {{{_add_}}}, {{{_mul_}}} etc to new {{{_add_sibling}}}, {{{_add_sibling_cdef}}}, framework etc. Intention is to eventually remove {{{_add_}}} everywhere.
 * Change all {{{__add__}}} methods (etc) to use new fast code pathways, pyrex tricks, as studied at SAGE Days 2.
 * Try changing {{{a.parent() == b.parent()}}} conditions to {{{a._parent is b._parent}}} in various places and see what breaks.
 * Write up more entries in WritingFastPyrexCode. (''everyone'')
 * Write a benchmarking module.
 * Optimise pyrex in coercion module.
 * Make Algebra {{{_base_ring}}} into a cdef attribute.
 * Move univariate Polynomial class down to Pyrex, and make it inherit from {{{CommutativeAlgebra}}} instead of {{{CommutativeRing}}}. (''David'')
   * Rewrite polynomials over Z and Z/nZ using direct NTL calls. (''David'')
 * Optimise new integers mod n code using fast pyrex tricks.
 * Wrap NTL finite fields and polynomials over finite fields.
 * Benchmark omalloc. (''Martin'')
 * Linear algebra (perhaps William or Robert want to say something here?)

== Packaging and Integration ==
 William Stein
 
 * Getting sage-1.4.1 ready:
    * New maxima, pari, clisp.
    * Editing and including axiom interface.
 


==== Lower priority issues ====
 * Make generic dense polynomial class in pyrex using C arrays to store coefficients?
