We have added a lot of new functionality to [math] since the 1.1 release, and Mantissa includes quite a bit more. We need a 1.2 release plan, incorporating some elements of Mantissa. Here is a straw man - please any and all jump in to comment and most of all volunteer to take on tasks.
1. Start with a list of Mantissa features to introduce into [math] 1.2, based on the WishList and review of the Mantissa code base. Here is my suggested list for math 1.2: a. The entire Mantissa estimation package b. The entire Mantissa optimization package 2. Repackage and refactor Mantissa code - not much, actually - to be consistent with the rest of [math] (interface encapsulation, pluggable implementations using new approach - see 5 below) 3. Replace suboptimal implementations in math random and analysis packages with better impls in Mantissa, where this makes sense (TBD - comments / suggestions welcome). Also, leverage relevant bits and code recently contributed in MATH-157 to implement SVD. 4. Clean up things added to math trunk since 1.1 5. Replace commons-discovery dependency injection mechanism with spring-compatible approach - patches welcome! 6. Get to zarro boogs (or a pretty Jira screen, I guess ;-) Comments, volunteers, patches, welcome!
