| * LDAP authentication. Suggested by "tdumont@math.univ-lyon1.fr Hello, I am *very* interested. I am supposed to start a Sage server for *all* the undergraduate students of my University (at least those learning maths and computer sciences or physics). My contribution is very small: add ldap identification, run a server on 3 "large" machines. Yours t.d. " |

| ONDREJ: . There are things that I now don't like on the Sage notebook, like that if I click on a cell, the frame gets focused (that's ok), but the text moves by one pixel. I hate that. My javascript version doesn't do that, at least on firefox. In fact, it's just a CSS styles issue, so it's easy to fix -- but I wasn't sure if it's just on my firefox, or oeverywhere. |

Sage Usability Improvements List
Adapted from this repository.
Documentation
back tick versus $-- see sage-devel discussion I started on sept 3; suggestion is to patch Sphinx itself.
- fix sagenb.org so docstrings look right (sphinx)
- ReST mode(s):
- (1) replace tinymce by ReST editor? (2) %rest in cells, and get rest output.
Notebook
Admin
- add a textcha question for sage notebook signup
- LDAP authentication. (tdumont).
- ensure no matter what that worksheet and server are 'nsync
reduce data loss possibilites -- see dataloss.txt
- "I am running sage in one of our department servers, so that my students can use them. If my students lose their password, how can I recover it for them? Thanks." (Byungchul Cha)
- make it so username is email address -- i really like that
- add users as admin -- see sage-support email to fprimex
Users
- reorganize the notebook help page
- automatically have worksheets save their state and restore when started later.
- ability to update the titlebar from sage notebook
- ability for interacts to auto-update themselves
- Whoosh fulltext search (search in codenode archives for discussion)
Keith Lang "Top 10 UX Myths"; http://carsonified.com/blog/design/top-10-ux-myths/
- chat system for students/users
- implement %timeit block in notebook
tags-- see file tags.txt
- 1 week -- write something to make it easy to embed interacts in other web pages (needed for the frg, imho -- may start this at Lopez).

- iphone -- link to do completions
notebook input bug -- http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6729
- debugger in the notebook
- Somebody published a irrelevant worksheet (to test the button) and wanted to cancel it but he was not able. He then delete its worksheet, but apparently the worksheet was still published...:(
- make it possible to delete published worksheets.
- slideshow mode
- in-browser zoom-pan-annotate of Sage plots
What I mean is that the chance to access at the same time an history powered command line, and a powerful editor (with code completion, tabs, colors, etc.., which looks pretty standard - to not say minimal - in these modern times) looks pretty comfortable to me, but I'll be happy to listen to other comments. I've already heard talking about BeSpin ( https://bespin.mozilla.com/ ) in this list, right? Can't we have something similar?
- fix moinmoin
Build / Test
Implement a cross-browser web-application testing infrastructure based on webdriver http://code.google.com/p/webdriver/ for the notebook, focused on functionality, consistency and concurrency. For example, execute 10 sessions of virtual calculus students in a loop. tags: google <- for funding? notebook java stresstest Money? Don't know, motivated student who has learned webdesign, java and probably python.
- make it so sage binaries don't use ssse3, etc. -- make them FAT!
- windows server farm
- 1 week -- write code to do automated testing of the scalability of the Sage (or any) notebook system
- 1 week -- get the current notebook separated out from Sage 100% for real and get it to work on windows. (this is sagelite).
- 1 month -- the windows port
2 days -- VirtualBox Sage
- 2 days -- andLinux Sage
- 1 month -- fix the major bugs and issues with the current notebook that make it difficult to deploy (e.g., account management).
- 1 week -- improve documentation/testing and refactor code.
