Gilles commented on MATH-851:
-----------------------------

I fully agree with Sébastien: Your proposed code not being committed right away 
is not (primarily) related to the discussion about formatting rules.
It's rather that accepting a new feature is not automatic; just the fact that 
it might a useful code snippet  is not enough to include it in a library with 
some purported design goals (which can be fuzzily defined too, I admit) ;).

One way to speed the process is to demonstrate the usefulness of the new 
feature in a "real" application. It could be in a non-trivial unit test, or in 
a new section of the "user guide".

Contributions that already fit within the existing design of Commons Math are 
also likely to be more rapidly committed. Examples are:
* a bug-fix,
* an efficiency improvement, or
* an implementation of an existing feature (e.g. a new "interpolation" scheme).

Any of those would also help you getting "incrementally" acquainted with the 
formatting conventions.

> I created a function performing (one-dimensional) convolution. Currently, the

> appropriate place for it(?).
