  Description     : engine for symbolic geometric calculus for Python

Pynac (which stands for "Python is Not a CAS") is a fork of GiNaC that
replaces the dependency of GiNaC on CLN (Class Library for Numbers,
C++) by a dependency on Python.

This is the library for symbolic geometric calculus in Python, as used
in SAGE (http://www.sagemath.org).

Notice that the homepage is a 503 since a few days, and my experimental
personal package is based on sources I took in SAGE's sources and
re-tarred -- definitely ugly! I'm in contact with upstream: they
have a new version almost ready to ship and are aware of their homepage
situation.

When things will be clearer, I'll work on a better package.

Should I put myself as maintainer or put in under the
debian-science-maitainers umbrella?
