== Registration ==

Registration is free, but please register on: http://www.conferences.jku.at/riscsummer2009/e2570/index_eng.html.

Very convenient and reasonably priced rooms are available for reservation from the same site, but may run out. Register early!

== Prerequisites ==

All attendees are expected to have Sage >= 4.1 and the Sage-Combinat patches installed on their laptops. If you do not plan to bring a laptop, please contact the organizers, and we will have a terminal setup for you. Please come see us for help during FPSAC if you encounter any problem!

Sage 4.1 will be available shortly from: http://www.sagemath.org/download.html

See http://wiki.sagemath.org/combinat/MercurialStepByStep for the installation instructions of Sage-Combinat. On UNIX/Mac, it boils down to running the following command in a terminal:
{{{
sage -combinat install
}}}

== T-Shirts ==

If you would like to get the T-Shirt for this workshop (~$10), please write the size below before July 11th. Here is the current design (suggestions welcome):
[[attachment:front-nt.png]] [[attachment:back-nt-2.png]]

And if you wonder about the meaning: ``Sage is the powerful propeller allowing us to soar high to our [[http://you-tube.com/watch?v=860pEuwHgCw|Castle in the Sky]]. Our hope is that in return our
scouting will help drive the car to new horizons``.

== Preliminary list of short tutorials ==

Besides the main general-purpose Sage-Combinat tutorial, we will run
short tutorials focused on specific features, with a (flexible) format
like 10 minutes of presentation; 20 minutes of exercises. Here are
some ideas. Please feel free to suggest others, especially around some
features you developed yourself!

 * Symmetric Functions, Non Commutative Symmetric Functions, using algebras with several basis (Jason? Nicolas?)
 * Implementing enriched enumerated sets, (e.g. how to enrich the partitions of 5 with a semi-groups structure) (Florent?)
 * Implementing new combinatorial objects (?)

*-Combinat 2009

International Sage Workshop on Free and Practical Software for Algebraic Combinatorics

Dates: July 25-29

Location: RISC, Linz, Austria

This event will follow FPSAC'09, and be part of RISC's summer 2009.

Goals

  • get new users and developers on board, especially from the FPSAC community
  • help former MuPAD-Combinat users to switch to Sage
  • developers meeting
