I am interested in having sage in Debian, and I am willing to provide
manpower to reach this goal. I believe that the TODO is summarized by
your picture. I have a couple of questions:
- What would be an 'easy' task for someone wanting to join this effort?
  Just picking a red package? I have some experience with packaging, but
  mainly with Ruby libraries.
- How coordination is organized? this mailing list? IRC?

Thanks!

Cédric
