From Fedora Project Wiki
The Goal
The goal of the Sage Fedora Activity Day is to get Sage into Fedora, packaged, reviewed and built for at least rawhide.
The Purpose
Sage is a powerful GPL compatible mathematics suite that -from what I understand- does a lot of what other (more expensive) Math suites do. For more details on Sage, see http://sagemath.org/tour.html
Having a powerful Math suite like Sage in Fedora enables a lot of Scientists and Mathematicians to use Fedora as their platform for their research and/or education.
The Scope
The scope entails Sage itself, all of its requirements, and all of the requirements to its optional features.
Who, How, Where, Date, Time
TBD.
