Dear Jim,
Many thanks and congratulations again for your precious
work with Maxima 5.9.0. I am continually and successfully
using it. No essential problem. (I have abandoned 5.5 beta!)
On Friday I have I have had a look in SIGSAM Bulletin
in our Central Library of our University, a very well-known
ACM Quarterly Publication of the
Special Interest Group on Symbolic & Algebraic Manipulation
of the ACM.
In Vol. 36, No. 1, March 2002 issue (Issue 139) of the
Bulletin, there is a very short announcement about
Axiom as Open Source, by T. Daly (p. 28 there).
Perhaps, it could be possible (I am not sure) that an
announcement (in the Announcements Section) about
Maxima and its new release could also be made by
you in the SIGSAM Bulletin. Beyond the new release News
and your e-mail address, the home page of Maxima at
Sourceforge and the address of the present Mailing List
could also be mentioned (one page announcement).
Yet, I repeat, I do not know whether such an announcement
would be accepted for publication in SIGSAM Bulletin, but
this cannot be excluded after an announcement about Axiom
by T. Daly.
Best regards from Patras,
Nikos
