Discussions during Sage Days 7
Acceptance Criteria for standard packages
This criteria is foracceptanceof packages, not the criteria for consideration of packages. 1. GPL version 3 compatible license
- The package must build on our supported architectures and pass the worry test (e.g., what is the possibility of eventually using the package on Windows?)
- Quality: It should be "better" than anything else (that passes criteria 1 and 2) and the argument should be made for this. The comparison should be made to both python and other software. Criteria in passing the quality test include:
- Speed
- Documentation
- Usability
- Memory leaks
- Maintainable
- Interest and Demand:
- JSAGE vote
- sage-devel +1 votes (and sage-support votes)
- How many downloads of the optional package
