SAGE Bug Squash Day 9

The event will take place on Saturday, January 19th, 2008 and officially start at 9 am pacific standard time.

Remember the "Twisted Rule" -- Don't work on anything unless there is a trac ticket for it.

• The base version of SAGE we'll start with is 2.10. This is the current sage release, which you can upgrade to. Also, many binaries are available.

• [:bug9/status:STATUS]

• [:bug9/irc:IRC log]

• Write to [email protected] or [email protected] for an account on the bug tracker.

• We'll all be on #sage-devel at irc.freenode.net.

From Linux you can chat via a text console by installing "irssi", running it, and typing
  /SERVER add irc.freenode.net
  /SERVER irc.freenode.net
  /join #sage-devel

If you are using Konversation (the KDE IRC client), you can set up an auto-replace rule that lets you type #1322 (for trac #1322) and what everyone sees is http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/1322 (which lets people click on the link and see the bug you are talking about).

To configure this, go to Settings -> Configure Konversation -> Behavior -> Auto Replace and create a rule with Find as "#([0-9]+)" and Replace with as "http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/%1" (both without the quotes). You can select whether this rule is applied to incoming posts, your outgoing posts, or both.

Participants (with area they would like to work on)

1. Michael Abshoff (merging patch, OSX 64 bit build issues, spkg updates)
2. William Stein (misc)
3. Carl Witty (make reference manual prettier by adding LaTeX to docstrings)

Many other people will hopefully participate, but didn't yet add themselves here due to the rather tight schedule.
