I support this idea but with one condition: -> If we move stable pieces of research to a specific folder. I mean that SP and TP that are working fine could be in a separated folder as occurs in Nupic.Core. In this case, we would put Python CLA that is ok into nupic/engine folder. This is how the code is organized in Nupic.Core. Or better, create an python OO version of CLA into nupic/engine, so peeople wouldn't concern about understand nupic/research in case of they which have fun with CLA instantaneously.
So if new changes in nupic/research bring proved improvements to NuPIC, we update the algorithms in nupic/engine. This way we keep the things well organized.
