[sandbox] report

I've asf 2.0'd the sandbox. All modules that are mavenised either build,
or if they don't, they didn't before.

I've moved all mavenised projects over to the sandbox-build structure but
not run the maven->build.xml yet, so might see some gumps if any of these
are in gump.

Also prepared a report on sandbox in general:

The sandbox cli project should be safe to remove now, it was being used 
for some experimentation prior to v2 but all work has been moved to a 
branch on cli proper which has been 2.0'd already (HEAD hasn't but no 
release is expected there)

i've now had a bit of experience (from various perspectives) with this 
and i now think that the best practice is to insist on a speedy base 
line release when the component graduates - but this may be a 0.1 (or a 
0.5 etc) release rather than a full 1.0 release.

being able to release is an important step between experimental code 
and graduating to a fully supported component. some users require 
official releases and it's better for other projects to be able to rely 
on releases (rather than snapshots) but often components have stumbled 
when it comes to fixing the interfaces (which is probably required for 
a 1.0 release). a good 1.0 is often a goal which may take months (or 
years) to achieve.

I think this is pretty much the current situation. For most components,
they move from sandbox to commons with the intention of a release. A few
have just got hung up at the last hurdle :)

Subtle point - should there be a required release to get to commons out 
of sandbox?  One issue we're discussing is that code shouldn't depend 
on sandbox code, as it's supposed to be just a 'play area'.  That said, 
having users is a great way to clean, refactor and evolve code, so if 
you can only get to commons from sandbox w/ a release, then we are 
imposing a bit of a chicken-egg problem, or just releasing for the sake 
of release, which I think is pointless.

Phil,

Thank you for the info, I'll start with the code review and javadoc. It 
sounds like you need help there, and it'll give me a chance to learn the 
  codebase, so it's a good place to start. Later this week 
(Thursday/Friday) I'll look at the other items to see what I can best 
contribute on there. I'll try to keep the dumb newbie questions to a 
minimum. :)

Chris,

The TODO list and "Straw Man Release Plan" here:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=jakarta-commons-dev&m=107547484612802&w=2
provide a decent summary of what we need to do to get a 1.0 release out the
door.  Right now, we are pretty much focussed on cleaning up what we have
so that we can make an intitial release and then get on to some new stuff. 
Depending on your interest / background / tolerance for things like
documentation, testing, etc., I would suggest that you start on one or more
of the following. All have essentially equal priority, since all must be
done prior to release.

1. Code and javadoc review -- there are lots of errors and broken links in
the javadoc and we need to get through all of this.  Pick any package and
start reviewing / submitting patches / fixing broken links.  We need to get
everything up to the standard specified in the "Documentation" section
here: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/math/developers.html
If you look at, for example, the random or distribution packages, the
javadoc is not in bad shape; but other packages need significant work.
Obviously, a key part of this task is verifying that the code and tests
match the javadoc.

2. User Guide contributions.  If you know basic stat, filling in the
missing sections on Bivariate Regression and/or Statistical Tests in
stat.xml would be great.  The Utilities section also needs to be written.
Let me know if you are going to work on anything in the User Guide so that
we don't step on each other.

3. Test path and boundary value coverage improvements. If you have access
to R or S, for example, or have a numerics background, it would be very
helpful to do more validation testing using extreme values, badly
conditioned problems, etc.  Here again, let us know what you are working on
if you decide to take some of this on.

4. Do the research, evaluate the patch here:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25278
and either submit a patch or recommend closing the spline implementation
issue as WONTFIX.  Test cases and good references describing the proposed
algorithms will be necessary to close this.

5. RealMatrix Solve issue. What is going on here is that the solve() method
of the RealMatrix interface enables you to solve a linear system whose
coefficient matrix is the RealMatrix instance.  The current implementation
uses LU decomposition, which is a good general method, but when you get
down to it the best solution method depends on the system, so it would be
good to make the solution method pluggable.  That is the problem statement.
 If you dig into the code, you will see that the LU decomposition is cached
and used for multiple things (e.g. determinant computation, singularity
testing) and there are some efficiencies that result from this.  I would
not want to lose these efficiencies by fully separating the decomposition.

6. Critical assessment of the APIs from a usability and extensibility
standpoint. I would really like to hold onto the 1.0 target, which means
that the APIs need to be stable and easily extensible without breaking
backward compatability.

If you have any problems getting set up, submitting patches, figuring out
maven, etc., don't hesitate to ask for help. Thanks in advance.

Phil

Phil, I am new to the Commons, but would like to help out the math 
project if I could. In brief I am a mathematician turned developer 
(principally Java), and would like to do something mathematical again. 
What is your highest priority now? I saw the TODO list, but I imagine 
there are some things more urgent than others. One item I didn't 
understand was the refactoring of the solve method for the RealMatrix 
class (I didn't follow what was meant by making it more pluggable), but 
if that isn't what you need the most, I'd rather help out where you need 
the help.

I *finally* have some results. I ran a couple of small data sets through

org.apache.commons.math.stat.univariate.DescriptiveStatisticsImpl and a 
couple of R and Octave scripts to
compare answers.

A few of the functions I have not been able to figure out in Octave yet, 
like getMax(), getMin(), getSum() and  getSumsq().

For the most part, I got the same answers, except for kurtosis and skewness.

I hope this is helpful.

I am starting to look at R for validating the stats functions. I also 
found a site with some data sets, but I have not looked at them yet.

I took a few weeks to read some books from the library about the kinds 
of jobs that math majors can get. It was  very interesting reading. I 
wish there were more books like that when I was in high school.

The following coding/doco items are all still open:

a. Finish the User Guide
b. Finalize and execute RealMatrix solve() strategy
c. Finalize and execute spline changes
d. Extend certified data tests with tests against R or other sources (need 
to finalize what is included here)
e. Review API and fix broken links and other errors in javadoc
f. Improve path and boundary value test coverage
g. Finalize and implement "BeanList" stats

I have been making slow progress on a, d, e, and f.  Javadoc review has 
raised a few additional API issues (e.g. RealSolver refactoring) and I am 
sure that more will surface as I make my way through all of the code.  I 
have been extremely time constrained recently, but hopefully this will 
improve "soon."  Volunteer help on any of the items above -- especially 
code/API review -- would be much appreciated.

In Math we have Phil and myself working on various aspects of the 
release process. My efforts have primarily been in automation of the 
release process and site generation (thus benefiting the whole commons 
as well) while Phil has been focused on task management to get the

I'm working on Jelly at the moment to get to ASL v2 compliance. As far as 
a release goes, the next release is scheduled as a beta when the existing 
bugs and enhancements are finished :-)

[releases] lacking releases for .... Was: [sandbox] report

Posted by Henri Yandell <ba...@generationjava.com>.
In addition, we have commons-proper projects without a release:

IO
Jelly
Jexl
Launcher
Math

Does anyone have estimated release dates for these? and who is release
manager for each one? [something we should probably make a clause of
sandbox->proper promotion]. If the release manager then vanishes, we
should demote if no one else volunteers.

***

To get started, I'm currently viewing myself as IO release manager and
have been slowly moving along. All code is now javadoc'd as much as needs
be and classes that will not go in 1.0 have been identified. 3 Unit tests
remain to be finished.
