| Sage-combinat is a collection of experimental patches (i.e. extensions) on top of [[http://www.sagemath.org/|Sage]], developed by a community in algebraic combinatorics. Its main purpose is to improve Sage as an extensible toolbox for computer exploration, and foster code sharing between researchers in this area. The intent is that most of those patches eventually will get integrated into sage as soon as they are mature enough, with a typical short life-cycle of a few weeks. In other words: just install Sage, and you will benefit from all the Sage-combinat development, except for the latest bleeding edge features. | Sage-Combinat is a software project whose mission statement is: '''to improve the open source mathematical system [[http://www.sagemath.org/|Sage]] as an extensible toolbox for computer exploration in algebraic combinatorics, and foster code sharing between researchers in this area'''. |

| The transition is going to be a massive investment: seven years of hard work to port over! However a lot of experience was gained since 2000, and most of the design is now pretty clear. By sharing the work the transition will hopefuly be relatively quick. See the [[http://sagetrac.org/sage_trac/wiki/SageCombinatRoadMap|road map and current status]] of the port. |

Sage-Combinat
Sage-Combinat is a software project whose mission statement is: to improve the open source mathematical system Sage as an extensible toolbox for computer exploration in algebraic combinatorics, and foster code sharing between researchers in this area.
In practice, Sage-combinat is a collection of experimental patches (i.e. extensions) on top of Sage, developed by a community of researchers. The intent is that most of those patches get eventually integrated into Sage as soon as they are mature enough, with a typical short life-cycle of a few weeks. In other words: just install Sage, and you will benefit from all the Sage-combinat development, except for the latest bleeding edge features.

- 2008-06-19: MuPAD-Combinat join forces with Sage
Sage-combinat was born as a partial port of MuPAD-Combinat. After months of discussions and experiments, an enthusiastic consensus emerged in the MuPAD-Combinat community to join Sage. Sage-combinat henceforth became the natural successor of MuPAD-Combinat.
- The transition is a massive investment: seven years of hard work to port over! However a lot of experience was gained since 2000, and most of the design is now pretty clear. By sharing the work the transition will hopefuly be relatively quick.
Who are we?
How to participate and contribute
Communication
- Join our mailing lists:
- Announcement mailing list (to come)
sage-combinat-devel: Developers' mailing list
sage-combinat-commits: A low traffic mailing list which receives an automatic notice whenever a sage-combinat related ticket is modified (and eventually whenever a commit is done on the patch server).
sage-combinat-days: Mailing list for the organisation of Sage-Combinat days
Check the road map and current status
Post bug reports, suggestions, patches on the Sage-Combinat trac server or on the mailing list.
- Cite Sage-Combinat when you use it for research publications (TODO: provide a standard citation here).
Code
The collection of patches is managed using a patch server (mercurial queues). Use it to try out the latest experimental features, or contribute your own patches! (You may still need to access to the old patch server)
Please read the Step by step tutorial (in particular, how to download Sage-Combinat)
For the curious: Technical background on the Sage-Combinat patch server (messy).
For hg/mercurial lovers: Mercurial: The Definite Guide an e-book by Bryan O'Sullivan
Mercurial server for miscelleanous files and documents
To check them out, use hg clone http://combinat.sagemath.org/misc/ Sage-Combinat-misc-file. This will create a subdirectory Sage-Combinat-misc-file in the current directory; you can use any other name for this subdirectory.
Design
Have a look and participate to design discussions.
Contribute to the list of quirks and weirdness issues in the *-Combinat design.
Documentation
From sage 3.4 on, the documentation system is based on ReST/Sphinx. Here are some help about the new doc system
