SAGE Bug Day 14

The event will take place on Thursday, October 23, 2008 and officially start at 9 am pacific standard time and go on until people run out of energy.

Don't work on anything unless there is a trac ticket for it.

• The base version of SAGE we'll start with is 3.1.4

• For a trac account follow these instructions

• 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 (Merges, memory leaks, reviews)
2. Craig Citro
3. William Stein (number theory bugs; magma/sage interface bugs):
   • Magma

     • (done) 4241 -- massive magma interface memory leaks

     • (done) 2171 -- magma matrix conversion; probably just a rebase

     • (done) 1997 -- magma control-c too aggressive

     • (done) 4348 -- get magma interface to 100% coverage

   • Number theory

     • (done) 4347 -- generalized bernoulli numbers

     • (done) 3901 -- automated doctesting elementary number theory book

     • 4337 -- Hecke operators on q-expansions of Gamma_1(N) modular forms

   • Other

     • (done) 3900 -- pickle jar

     • (done) 3765 -- parallel option for "sage -br"

     • (done) 4346 -- weird linear algebra segfault; but note this led to 4350 and 4351...

     • (done) 4350

     • (done) 4351 -- issues related to 4346

4. DanDrake (notebook documentation, reviews...starting about 23:30 UTC)

5. Alex Ghitza (ssmod bugs, modular forms)
6. Mike Hansen
   • Templating the Notebook

   • 4330 -- interfaces function_call(...) function is a total MESS

Many other people will hopefully participate, but didn't yet add themselves here.
