    Originally sent this to dev list not github - the autopsy emails are a bit 
confusing on mobile :)
    
    
    
    
    @fommil @mengxr I think it's always worth a shot at a license change. 
Scikit learn devs have been successful before in getting such things over the 
line.
    
    
    
    
    Assuming we can make that happen, what do folks think about MTJ vs Breeze 
vs JBLAS + commons-math since these seem like the viable alternatives?

the PR. For the license issue, it would be great if the original author of MTJ 
agrees to change the license to Apache. With the LGPL license, there is not 
much we can do.
