Java packages organize classes by functionality. CDK modules organize
classes by dependencies. The fact that something is in the 'smiles'
module, does not imply that it is not a uniform platform.

The quote, btw, does not refer the platform to the class, but to the
java package:

"Moved Normalizer into a separate package, in reply to discussion
around patch #2905749, making space for a uniform platform for
structure normalization: cdk.normalize"

The background behind this, as was discussed earlier, that we should
get together all scattered normalization code in the CDK. This central
java package can then serve as central place to find functionality
related to structure normalization.

Hoping this clarifies things,

Egon
