 * hunt mem-leaks in C/C++ code of Sage
 * Solaris port of SAGE.
 * DMG installation image for MacOSX
 * optional spkgs: CoCoA 4.7.x, ApCoCoALib & CoCoALib, g++ 4.2
 
=== Short Term ===
 * 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
 * Probably chairing the current Sage release
 * [[solaris|Solaris port of Sage]]
 * [[freebsd|FreeBSD port of Sage]]
 * [[windows|MSVC port of Sage]]
 * [[windows|Cygwin re-port of Sage]]
 * hunt mem-leaks in C/C++ code of Sage
 * [[DebianSAGE]]
 * whatever else currently needs fixing
 * [[http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&owner=mabshoff&order=priority|My open trac tickets]] (the idea was shamelessly stolen from Martin Albrecht)

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, 3.0.1-6, 3.1.1-4, 3.2, 3.2.1-2. 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

Currently Working on

Done Tasks

  • My closed trac tickets (the idea was shamelessly stolen from Martin Albrecht)

  • See the Changelog, the google groups sage-devel and sage-support and #sage-devel on freenode.
  • DMG installation image for MacOSX [other people did most of the work here]
  • 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

Other Software Interests

  • Linbox with MSVC
  • Porting mathematical open source code to Solaris, Windows and any odd Unix out there.

Places where I can be found
