I don't see commons-math as legacy code. Just to look around my corner of the world, ImageJ has a solid place in the biomedical imaging world and commons-math is its workhorse. Second, I think Java is, or should be anyway, a natural step outside of scientific computing environments like Matlab or Octave for when the benefits of compiled code are important. I think it's a lot easier to deal with in-Matlab Java than .mex files, with their silly interface and their planned obsolescence. I think the only reason Matlab-Java is used so much less is because the Matlab interface is so buggy and lousy. I'm planning to start contributing to Octave this year and see if we can't start outperforming Matlab on Java integration pretty quickly.

Hi.

I think that we could list quite a few things there:

But that would require that we know what we want in the first place.
Where is this project heading to?
Is this "legacy" code?
