Hi, IMHO, the control systems should go as a separate repository under sympy with the main sympy repository as a dependency.
In fact that should have happened with sympy.stats as well, as no other module uses features of stats and the case is other way around but that is a thing for another day. Well, I just thought of a way which could have been used to organize modules. If we make a directed graph with modules as nodes and an edge, m->n, would reflect that module n depends on module m. Then only those modules should be kept under sympy/sympy which have both in-degree and out-degree greater than 0. Those which have out-degree of 0 can be carved out as separate packages under sympy organization. However, as of now, doing this would create unnecessary pain for end users. So, control systems, AFAICT will not be used by any other module under main sympy repo, so can be kept as a separate package.
