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.
