SAGE Days 2: SAGE: Now and The Future

A talk for [:days2:the SAGE Days 2 workshop], by William Stein.

The purpose of this workshop:
- - lots of strategy, planning, brainstorming, etc.
Funding ideas:
- - NSF Grants:
  - - Computational Math program
    - CSUMS (http://sage.math.washington.edu/grants/stein-csums-06/)
  - The SAGE Mathematics Foundation - Parallel SAGE push
Mercurial revision control system: why? what? how? -- a very quick tour
Python 2.5
- - index method; now v[ZZ(2)] works. - lists with more than 2^32 elements - lots of speedups - ctypes is included standard - conditional expressions: x = true_value if condition else false_value - see http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/whatsnew25.html
Recently added SAGE components:
- - GSL: GNU Scientific Library - Twisted: Networking framework
Upcoming events that are relevant to SAGE development:
- - October 23-27: I'm speaking about SAGE at an IMA "Software in Algebraic Geometry" in Minnesota later this month. - Nov 5-11: Me at CCR - Dec 3-4, 2006: Me at Waterloo
  - Jan 29-Feb 2: MSRI Interactive Parallel Computation ---> SAGE - March 10-14, 2007: Arizona Winter School (I'm at co-organizer). David Savitt (here) is the organizer. - June 3-8, 2007: Banff workshop on modular forms computation -- I'm an organizer - July 30-Aug 3, 2007: AIM: Workshop on Modular Forms and L-functions -- I'm an organizer
- Plans:
  - - SAGE 2.0: fast arithmetic - SAGE 3.0: parallel - Along the way: modular forms, elliptic curves, groebner basis, quaternion algebras, etc. -- what people want
