-1 I welcome greater participation especially from the ACM, but I also encourage people not to "jump the gun". Commons-math is a sandbox component, nothing guarantees promotion to Commons proper. Commons-math is not attempting to be a repository for all numerical algorithms - at least not in the current proposal. The scope as defined in the proposal is very limited to encourage developers to submit patches focused on a small set of realistic goals. aimed at a real-world requirements. I'd like to see us explore an idea of providing an interface to other implementations of algorithms (i.e. commons-logging), but I think that is something for *the future*. Right now, we need focus, unit tests, pages of detailed documentation, and attention to detail. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
