 if jblas seems to be of interest to debian-science, please would you take care
 of atlas and an upgrade to atlas 3.8 as well? else I would suggest to Chris to
 just go ahead and maybe CC debian-java.
I am currently working on atlas (see the work in the svn of pkg-scicomp)
but it is a big work (especially solving the problem of the specific
optimisation for each arch within the packaging system).

When I said jblas is of interest to debian-science, what I meant was
I think that some of the people on debian-science may be interested
in jblas, so please keep them informed of your progress. In addition,
debian-science is a good place to ask for help with science applications.

Allow to just budge in to say a heartfelt Thank You!  Debian always rocked
because of all the work Camm had done for Atlas, and it would be terrific if
we continued to have nicely working Atlas package.  So your work is really
appreciated!  

[ Personally speaking, I'd say feel free to simplify. IMHO it is better to
have a decent and current atlas-base (with a hook to optimise locally) than
a multitude of packages that invariably get old as cpu (sub-)architectures
change. ]

* Package name: jblas
  Version : 0.1

  Description : jblas is a fast linear algebra library for Java

  jblas is a fast linear algebra library for Java. jblas is based on
  BLAS and LAPACK, the de-facto industry standard for matrix
  computations, and uses state-of-the-art implementations like ATLAS for
  all its computational routines, making jBLAS very fast. 

  jblas can is essentially a light-wight wrapper around the BLAS and
  LAPACK routines. These packages have originated in the Fortran
  community which explains their archaic API. On the other hand modern
  implementations are hard to beat performance wise. jblas aims to make
  this functionality available to Java programmers such that they do not
  have to worry about writing JNI interfaces and calling conventions of
  Fortran code.

This package seems likely to be of interest to debian-science, so I'm
sending this mail there too. 

It would presumably fit into the mathematics-dev task.

And here is the rest of the description for debian-science readers.
