If the SeqFan archives are completely public, then
we could also organize it as newsgroup and retrieve
old stuff with Google. Or in other words, I don't
like THIS idea, because I want to post really stupid
questions in SeqFan more privately, and not ready to
be read by Google users in 2121... ;-)
But I like your original idea: Collecting infos for
EIS sequences, especially sources used to calculate
terms in EIS sequences. Probably you won't like my
REXX scripts like I can't use PARI, MAPLE, etc. here
directly, but often _any_ source is better than no
source at all. Until now long programs are not shown
as %p in EIS, maybe seqfan.net files could solve this
problem ?
Example: Somebody computed A035615(26) this year, but
I don't know how. All I have is my own algorithm and
some ideas, which needs about a day on my system to
verify A035615(16): yes, it's correct, but I want an
algorithm for more terms and not less... ;-)
Bye, Frank
