Wow! This is a **very** extensive work! There is a lot of very
interesting and useful looking work here.
I have begun the process of installing this package on
the Axiom Wiki. You can see some of the code here:

I had some problems reading the pdf version of the file above.
It seems to have very small top margin that cuts off some of
the text. I was able to print it successfully using ghostview
on the postscript version and then convert it to a useable pdf
with the ghostview 'convert' option.

It downloads just fine.
As I mentioned above, I am trying to get this to compile on
the Axiom Wiki.
One problem is to find the dependencies and a feasible order in which
to compile the sources.
A second problem is that some of the code does not compile as is
using SPAD. In these cases, I was forced to break the code down
into smaller pieces with only one domain/category per section/file.
I think this strategy is going to work.
A third problem is that there are apparently some Aldor versions
of some of the domains/categories. I tried to compile one of
these, but got an unexpected error message. Right now I am
assuming that it will be possible to compile the entire system
using just the Spad code.

Thank you very much Werner Seiler! This is a marvelous contribution
to the mathematical abilities of Axiom.
Thanks also Cliff, for getting around to post this message. :)
