I think that most of the tests of this spkg will be done in http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6502
I hope it will be possible to quickly include all of this into SAGE !! ( Oh, and this spkg is meant to be standard, not just optional !! )

It's rather difficult to include this SPKG when there are (as yet) no functions in the Sage library to test its functionalities. Once #6502 gets positive review, this SPKG could then be merged in the Sage standard packages repository.

We no longer use "SAGE". The days of that capitalization are over. Now use "Sage" instead.

I object to including this as standard just because of consistency concerns - I think this needs a vote on sage-devel.

Note: I said "Positive review from me as far as I can tell, as an optional package. "

The proposal here is to merge the SPKG in the optional packages repository.

I forgot all about the voting process I immediately send a message on Sage-devel about it.
This package has to be included in the --standard-- package repository if we want Sage to have any native LP feature ( see #6502 ). Coin-or and Cplex are both GPL-uncompatible ;-)

The vote is going on there : http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/browse_thread/thread/fed15c54478e8d5

I could be wrong but I think trac is for optional packages. IIRC, once it is optional (ie, posted to http://www.sagemath.org/packages/optional/) then a public vote is carried out on sage-devel.

I did not know that !!!
I'm pretty new aboard, and the only thing I wrote for Sage was an interface for Cliquer, which has seemingly found a shortcut through all these steps ;-)
I may be in a hurry, but it is just because :
- I am impatient to see this patch accepted
- I have already written several graph functions waiting to be included in the Graph class that I will not post until MIP is included into Sage
Sorry again ! I'll try to be a bit more patient ;-)

Merged in optional packages repository. The new optional package can be found here:
I'm not sure what needs to be checked here. It installs fine on an amd64 ubuntu 9.04 machine and passes sage -testall.
Are there any tests I should run? I saw nothing on the url given in the ticket but I am not an OR person.
Positive review from me as far as I can tell, as an optional package.
