Dear all,

Anthropic (the company behind the Claude AI) launched a programme
<https://claude.com/contact-sales/claude-for-oss> that allows Open Source
developers/contributors to apply for 6 months free Claude Max 20x, which
normally costs $200 per month.

A friend recommended me to apply for it (I didn't know about it), citing my
recent work on Maxima, and indeed I got selected! To those who've made
significant contributions (see terms
<https://www.anthropic.com/claude-for-oss-terms>): I encourage you to
apply, too. In my application, I mentioned that Maxima lives on SourceForge
and selected the Maxima GitHub mirror <https://github.com/calyau/maxima> as
the project. If you like, let me know before you apply, then I can update
the GitHub mirror so that the most recent commits are visible there, if
that helps you.

I'm still getting used to Claude, but I can already say that it's
incredibly powerful and far superior to my previous Gemini-based workflow.
The best part is that it can access code (read & write) and execute
commands (e.g. run Maxima to test things) locally on your computer. I'm
still careful with that, though.

Do you have suggestions for new features that I might try to tackle during
these 6 months? Of course I can also keep fixing bugs, or both.

Best regards
David Scherfgen
