Fwd: Maxima versions for Ubuntu



Christian,

I have taken the liberty of forwarding your message
to the Maxima mailing list. I don't use Ubuntu but I
think there are other people on the list who do.

Maybe you can tell us a little bit about your user
interface project. If you have not already done so,
perhaps you can take a look at 
http://maxima.sourceforge.net/relatedprojects.html
and get some ideas from that.

best,

Robert Dodier
