Guys,

SAGE is the math package I referred to at the meeting last night.  When 
you want to interact with SAGE using a GUI, you use a "notebook", which 
seems to be a JavaScript UI connecting back to the command line program.

This is very similar to some Perl (SAGE is Python) code that we're 
developing; it turns out having a browser UI for a Perl application is 
relatively simple and effective (modulo the usual rough edges of 
DHTML/Ajax UIs).
