20:12 CoCoA-5 Slug #948 (Closed): radical is slow (compared to singular) on these examples
The current state is good enough; it necessary, we could improve it at some future point.
Good enough to close (afte...

19:30 CoCoA-5 Design #1075 (Closed): LaTeX package: power-product printing
It seems that current impl has opted for KISS with long names preceded by a backslash.
This seems to be a good compr...

19:21 CoCoA-5 Feature #1112 (Closed): New function: IsEmpty
The manual entry looks OK to me; what do you think, Anna?
Each user can decide whether they prefer @IsEmpty(L)@ or @...

There is a small problem with some entries appearing twice:... John Abbott
10:37 Support #1774 (Feedback): Look of first Redmine page linked from CoCoA web page
The page https://cocoa.dima.unige.it/redmine/ is tedious to keep updated. We never look at it and we forget about it... Anna Maria Bigatti

21:26 CoCoALib Feature #379: Iter for subsets/tuples
I have now added a new ctor *@SubsetIter(n,k)@* which iterates over all subsets of cardinality @k@.
Still do not ...
John Abbott
20:42 CoCoALib Feature #379 (In Progress): Iter for subsets/tuples
I did this some time ago: it is in *@combinatorics.H@*.
I think there should be a version which iterates only over s...

20:43 CoCoALib Design #305: FreeModule: unique copy?
*ANNA* What is the status of this?
Feasible to complete before 0.99850?

I got a wrong answer from @CyclotomicFactorIndexes@; it missed the index 6... John Abbott
13:43 CoCoALib Feature #1770 (Resolved): Evaluate polynomial function/class
I have separated the evaluation code from the cyclotomic code, and put it in a new file.
Must still document the new...

21:30 CoCoALib Design #1768: Limit indentation in verbose mesgs?
*Anna* will test the updated code shortly (I hope)
John Abbott
21:29 CoCoALib Slug #1769 (Feedback): FixedDivisor is sometimes surprisingly slow
I regard this as fixed: the remaining work is in issue #1770 John Abbott
21:16 CoCoALib Design #1771 (Resolved): Hadamard bound: field names
During a telephone discussion with Anna, we decided it makes sense to change the field names. Of course, this is not... John Abbott
