10:23 CoCoALib Feature #1763: implement ideal(R) for zero ideal, with no generators?

I still think that @ideal(P)@ looks odd, and is less immediate to understand than @ideal(P,EmptyListOfRingElem)@.
Or... John Abbott

10:18 CoCoALib Design #1767: Finalize design for ideals in CoCoALib

Also for _exception cleanliness_, an operation such as @I += J@ would almost certainly have to compute a temporary id... John Abbott

10:14 CoCoA-5 Design #1041 (In Progress): Separators for elements of a list

I still agree with my comments in note 3 above.
For matrices, there are really 2 separators: between elements in a r... John Abbott

09:49 CoCoALib Design #908: Sum of ideals: what are the generators of (x) + (0)?

Currently I think we *should not* require that @gens(I+J) = concat(gens(I),gens(J))@. Other ideal operations do not ... John Abbott

20:56 CoCoALib Feature #1755 (Closed): CheckForInterrupt: give more info?

I have made a new example *@ex-interupt3.C@* which illustrates the idea from comment 1.
John Abbott

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... John Abbott

20:09 CoCoA-5 Bug #1746: ManExamples target: need to reset VerbosityLevel

The original problem seems to be resolved now.
