Sage 3.0.1.alpha0 released

Hello folks,

this is 3.0.1.alpha0. So far we have only merged bugfixes, nothing invasive has been merged yet and there is nothing on the radar that does look invasive. 24 tickets have been closed up to now and I am not quite sure what the rest of the release cycle will look like because it currently doesn't look like we need a pure bug fix only release quickly.

There are plenty of patches available for review. The coercion rewrite planned for 3.1 seems to be going well.

Sources and binaries are in the usual place:

Cheers,

Michael
