This is my interpretation, so please do not take it as an Incubator Project PMC's one. -- Apache Incubator welcomes the projects which are already decided -- their destinations. In "Math"'s case, it is destined to go back -- to commons, so we can accept. -- Incubator Project might have two posibillities. -- 1. Donation from other communities (sourceforge, etc.), and -- which have to be molded to be fit to ASF's licenses, voting -- rules, etc. -- 2. Apache Projects to be molded more to form healthy community -- As for <1>, Tapestry and Lenya were the cases. (Tapestry went -- to the top of jakarta, Lenya went under the Cocoon project, finally) -- As for <2>, current "FTPServer" and "AltRMI" are the cases -- [Math] could have the possiblities of <2> not <1>. I am not sure the history of "FTPServer" and "AltRMI", so maybe I am wrong. (I've heard the "Tapestry", "Lenya"'s cases already) > thanks for the "cross pollination", I am still wondering that "math" might have come to get more NEEDs not only as "small scalable components" but also as "endurable for commercial use, complexed components, alike to commercial products". The latter case, there might be a possibilities that "jakarta-maths and jakarta-commons-math" co-exist...(Also, the community, developers might be the same) I am not sure my intuition would be realistic or not.
