William Stein has said that Sage is failing without enough people using or adopting it. If changing the name of the tag will help people realize that it's referring to (really good!) software, while being the program's latest official name, that may be reason enough for a change. | |

Jan 17, 2017 at 2:46 | comment | added | pjs36 | I'm not really sure how I feel about this. The software is essentially known by both names, although as of 2015, it is apparently officially SageMath. I've always believed it's just known as SageMath occasionally to disambiguate from other uses of Sage outside of mathematics, like Simon & Garfunkel songs (indeed, see this help page: "the short name keeps being used when there is no ambiguity"). I don't really see any risk of ambiguity here, so I don't see any reason to change. But maybe I'm overly stubborn. | |
