  * Where to put these things in the type hierarchy
  * How to create one of these objects
 * Progress:
  * general g-algebra creation

 * see http://wiki.sagemath.org/i18n/French

=== Improve Emacs Interface ===
(Matthias Meulien)

Goal: provide fancy enhancement to Nick Alexander's emacs mode for Sage.

attachment:sage-view.el

This code adds LaTeX processing of Sage output and images embedding in emacs Sage buffer. Work in progress!!! Needs Ghostcript, AUCTeX... and recent emacs!! Done some bug fixing and performance stuff yesterday... Still a major bug with long output...

=== Increase Doctest Coverage ===
(Paul Zimmermann)

=== 2d Graph Plotting Enhancements ===
(Emily Kirkman, Philippe Saade)
 * The goals include restructuring current graph plot function to have more readable code, as well as adding features such as multiedge plotting and better scaling heuristics. Abandon ship of networkx plotting and interact directly with matplotlib.
