We have been on and off discussing cutting off HMMs. Users use them, have some success with them and some problems with them. Problems and up in our tracker, and do not get fixed, because nobody is happy with the code.
We have thought about moving them to another package, but it seems that no package feels like welcoming this code. My personal view on the problem is that we need to remove the HMM code. It is not evolving, cannot be compatible with our own guidelines, and is drawing resources from the developers. What do people think? Here is what I propose: 1. Add a DeprecationWarning in the hmm.py code 2. Move the hmm.py code in a separate github repo Do people agree with this course of action?
