Ipython qtconsole
Hi, is it possible to use the qtconsole that comes with IPython 0.11? BR / Johan
Yes, and 0.12 is progressing nicely. I've been keeping my eye on it.

Jason suggested making this an answer rather than a comment:
Sage only includes IPython 0.10, and I believe it's going to take some work to upgrade to 0.11. In particular, if you look at the list of changes from 0.10 to 0.11, there are number of backwards-incompatibilities.
(I also may be remembering wrong, but did Fernando Perez, one of the IPython developers, suggest that we wait until 0.12?)

John, that's a great answer. I think you should post it as a real "answer".
Ok, but is it on the todo list? Can it be expected in the next Sage release? It would really be a good feature I think.
It's not on the "todo list" = trac at this moment, as one can see by google searching for "site:trac.sagemath.org upgrade ipython". It will happen when somebody (you!?) opens a ticket and makes it happen.
OK, don't think I'm quite up for the job. I'm not really a software developer. However, should enough people find this interesting I will consider contributing somehow. The task should be organized by someone more skilled than me though.
