After I sent multiple unanswered emails on the subject to the scitech list, I made my own page to track progress: http://software.jamezone.org/Fedora/sage.html I update it about once per month. I've run into so many license problems while working on Sage components that I wonder how you ever came up with a coherent set of packages for Mandriva. Perhaps you excluded the components I've had trouble with. Anyhow, help packaging the remaining components would be most welcome.
