=== Short Term ===
 * [:windows:port Sage to Windows]
 * build unified Setup.py for gdmodule - less important now due to drop of the Cygwin drop (officially)
 * multivariate polynomial arithmetic via CoCoALib
 * computation of approximate vanishing ideals via ApCoCoALib (needs multivariate polynomial arithmetic via CoCoALib)
 * check targets for various SAGE packages like gmp and linbox
 * make all packages using BLAS/Lapack use the Accelerate Framework on MacOSX. Patch for Linbox exists and will hopefully show up in Linbox svn soon

=== Long Term ===
 * F4/F5 in CoCoALib with interface to SAGE

=== Interesting Ideas ===
 * port SAGE code to MinGW/MSVC - probably done when hell freezes over - but one can at least dream.
 * fix pari issue on cygwin - details FIXME

Michael Abshoff's Wiki SAGE page

Hello, I study math at the University of Dortmund. Most of the time I spend with SAGE is dedicated around packages and their portability. I added valgrind support to Sage 2.8.3 and have been using various valgrind tools to investigate Sage's memory consumption.

I also recently become a release manager for Sage and I chaired a number of releases: 2.8.11, 2.8.13-2.8.15, 2.9, 2.9.2, 2.10 and 2.10.1-3, 2.10.4 (together with Robert Miller), 3.0, 3.0.1-3. Since it looks like few people want to do this job it is very likely that I will do a lot more of those.

Task Table
