looks like a good and easy solution to handle packages with multiple
contributions; I'll let Daniel (Fridlender) to answer since he is the one
leading math :)
I agree. Would you create a new jira with this for math? Then I
would upload there a document with the result of our comparison and a
proposal for a combination of the two implementations.
Thanks

Thanks,
