Technically, the issue could be that the tools in the "o.a.c.m.special" package were not designed as those in the "o.a.c.m.analysis.function" package. And IIUC, "DerivativeStructure" builds on the latter. But that doesn't mean it cannot be done (I've not used it personally). A lot of work has been done on the "master" branch; a 3.7 release would mean backporting everything; not a trivial task and (if at all possible) it would take more time (by a tall order) than anyone is willing to devote to that library. IMHO, it's about time that we release v4.0 (which has been delayed by more than 4 years, according to when the decision has been taken to start development on that next major version). > > We are looking for volunteer maintainers for the math tools available > > for commons math in general or for "commons-numbers"? Both and more: * Commons Geometry (spun off the "o.a.c.m.geometry" package) * Commons Statistics (intended to replace the "o.a.c.m.stat" package) * Commons RNG (replacement of the "o.a.c.m.random" package, and pretty feature-complete as of v1.3). > I must confess I have only recently noticed that there is development in > commons-math-4 and might be out of date with my knowledge a bit as an > "old" math3 user :-) Which classes/packages have you been using?
