A standards document is not the standard itself, it's just a written copy of it. Standards obviously do function by being commonly agreed, and therefore the actual standards do require some form of change control to be effective. Where the 'actual standard' resides is another question. The copy of the standard on my harddisk certainly isn't it though, and it doesn't have to be under change control - as long as it is clear whether it represents the standard or is just something similar, there's no problem with it being mutable. After all, if people being able to change copies of standards really was such a huge risk, then you'd not be able to publish them at all without some pretty serious DRM, just in case someone altered one and all hell broke loose. Look, I'm going to change the length of an IP datagram and damn the consequences, mwahahahahaha! Many of the reasons to prefer freedom in software apply to standards also - if a community of developers think a standard is poorly designed and wish to produce a new one derived from the old, that is surely of benefit to everyone, and for exactly the same reasons as freeness is of benefit in software. doug. -- Core GNOME developers are heavy Ketamine users -- http://www.illusionary.com/GNOMEvKDE.html pgpS1wdopfQ6V.pgp Description: PGP signature

No, rsync will only checksum files by default when they are being sent or if the timestamp and/or file sizes do not match. Rsync will only checksum every file if you hand it the -c option. The only problem with this is getting the whole file list twice which takes some io. I am looking at the possibility of using cvsup (yes that sounds strange, but trust me) for mirroring because it uses the same algorithm as rsync and is much faster when it comes to getting the file list. Rsync will wait until the entire file list has been received, whereas cvsup will immediately grab the first file on the list which saves a lot of time in many cases. - Doug

It may also be used to calculate some invariants of algebras and modules: the Hilbert series, and (in the non-commutative case) the Poincaré-Betti series, the Anick resolution, and the Betti numbers. The most important feature of bergman are computations both in non-commutative and commutative cases. It also permits degree-wise output of results; thus it may save partial results from calculations close to or beyond the limit for calculations of entire Gröbner bases with present-day computer strength. This saves for the user partial results even the problem overheads the strength of the computer. Bergman offers the user a high level of flexibiliy. Among the alternatives for ring set-ups are: commutativity or non-commutativity; various strategies of Gröbner basis computation; a few different monomial orderings; and various coefficient fields. The set-up may be changed interactively during the session. Most calculations can be done both for ideals and modules. In the Reduce version it is possible to include indeterminates (with or without declared reduction rules) as coefficients for the commutative computations; otherwise the coefficient field should be a prime field. Bergman is written in Standard Lisp, the Lisp dialect underlying Reduce implementations. There is also available an experimentative Common Lisp version.Therefore, bergman works under Reduce, PSL or Common Lisp (at least one of them should be pre-installed), and commands are written in respect to Reduce or Lisp syntax. Bergman is a dependency of the Macaulay2 package "NCAlgebra" for working with noncommutative algebras. I intend to maintain it under the umbrella of the Debian Science Team.

Bug#805626: ITP: libxml-parser-easytree-perl -- Easier tree style for XML::Parser
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Doug Torrance * Package name: libxml-parser-easytree-perl Version : 0.01 Upstream Author : Eric Bohlman * URL : https://metacpan.org/release/XML-Parser-EasyTree * License : GPL/Artistic Programming Lang: Perl Description : Easier tree style for XML::Parser XML::Parser::EasyTree adds a new "built-in" style called "EasyTree" to XML::Parser. Like XML::Parser's "Tree" style, setting this style causes the parser to build a lightweight tree structure representing the XML document. This structure is, at least in this author's opinion, easier to work with than the one created by the built-in style. When the parser is invoked with the EasyTree style, it returns a reference to an array of tree nodes, each of which is a hash reference. All nodes have a 'type' key whose value is the type of the node: 'e' for element nodes, 't' for text nodes, and 'p' for processing instruction nodes. All nodes also have a 'content' key whose value is a reference to an array holding the element's child nodes for element nodes, the string value for text nodes, and the data value for processing instruction nodes. Element nodes also have an 'attrib' key whose value is a reference to a hash of attribute names and values. Processing instructions also have a 'target' key whose value is the PI's target. I plan to package this as a member of the Debian Perl Group. It will be a dependency of WeBWorK, an online math homework platform I am packaging as a member of the Debian Science Team.
Bug#805764: ITP: libarray-utils-perl -- Small utils for array manipulation

Fedorov * URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Array-Utils * License : GPL/Artistic Programming Lang: Perl Description : Small utils for array manipulation A small pure-perl module containing list manipulation routines. The module emerged because I was tired to include same utility routines in numerous projects. I plan to package this as a member of the Debian Perl Group. It will be a dependency of WeBWorK, an online math homework platform I am packaging as a member of the Debian Science Team.
Bug#813852: ITP: knowl.js -- JavaScript library for transclusion of supplementary information
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Doug Torrance * Package name: knowl.js Upstream Author : American Institute of Mathematics * URL : http://aimath.org/knowlepedia/ * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: JavaScript Description : JavaScript library for transclusion of supplementary information Like the familiar hyperlink, knowls can be used to provide relevant, supplementary information and are referenced from within the body of a web page. But unlike the hyperlink, which simply takes you to a new web page, the knowl conveniently serves up the information at your original location with the click of a mouse button. With a similar click, the knowl then disappears. I plan to maintain knowl.js as a member of the Debian JavaScript Team.
Bug#820848: ITP: phcpack -- General-purpose solver for polynomial systems
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Doug Torrance * Package name: phcpack Version : 2.4.14 Upstream Author : Jan Verschelde * URL : https://github.com/janverschelde/PHCpack * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: Ada Description : General-purpose solver for polynomial systems PHCpack is a software package to solve polynomial systems by homotopy continuation methods. A polynomial system is given as a sequence of polynomials in several variables. Homotopy continuation methods operate in two stages. In the first stage, a family of polynomial systems (the so-called homotopy) is constructed. This homotopy contains a polynomial system with known solutions. In the second stage, numerical continuation methods are applied to track the solution paths defined by the homotopy, starting at the known solutions and leading to the solutions of the given polynomial system. I intend to package PHCpack under the umbrella of the Debian Science team.
