Hello,
I have had several questions about release plans for 3.0.
I feel guilty for not having pushed this version out yet. It is not in
release shape now and many thing are still ongoing. Typically, a new
thread as been started a few hours ago about an important change in the
linear algebra API (a needed change, so something important to discuss now).
As far as I am concerned, here are the points I want to address myself
(but if other people want to help, chime in!). I would like to see what
other developers have in mind so wa can set up a release plan, and
really work toward a release which is past due.
My personal tasks are:
- finish the adapters wrapping unbounded optimizers into simple bounds
optimizers as set up by Gilles, using the two function adapters
already available
- stabilize Adams based ODE integrators using the
MathUtils.linearCombination feature to ensure better accuracy and
error estimates in the Nordsieck vectors
- perhaps add back the BDF integrator for stiff problems, using the
Nordsieck vectors once it has been stabilized for Adams methods
- perhaps add a Radau integrator
- replace the reset() method in step handler interface by init()
(it's a simple rename), and add a similar init() in the events
interface
- fix the mapping between boundary representation/BSP representation
in 2D/3D
could other people add to this list the features they want to have in 3.0 ?
