[DMANET] Announce: Global Virtual SageDays 109 - May 27-29

Sage is a mature, comprehensive, free (open-source) mathematics
software system based on Python, licensed under the GNU General Public
License, that integrates computer algebra facilities and general
computational packages.

SageDays are gatherings of people interested in SageMath, from
newcomers to contributors. Sage Days have been organized as local,
regional, or international in-person meetings by a wide range of
people around the globe. Because of the current global health crisis,
we organize SageDays 109 as the first fully virtual event in the
series.

It is held on Thursday, May 28, 2020 when it is that date in some
timezone in the world, which makes it a 50-hour event.

Scheduled presentations:
Fredrik Strömberg - An introduction to SageMath and Python
Jean-Philippe Labbé - Combinatorics and geometry of polyhedra in Sage
Krystal Guo - Using SageMath in Algebraic Graph Theory
Alex J. Best - Computations with p-adic polylogarithms in Sage
