Dangling collections in front of commons
Does anyone object if I send a suggestion to the commons PMC that
mahout-collections would make more sense as commons-something-or-another? I
don't expect to get anywhere, but I thought I'd try.

Commons-collections turns out to be a very specific thing which this
is not. I have an intemediate proposal that I'll put in a separate
thread.

"Marination" is exactly my motive why I work on HPPC in separation
from Mahout... Once you let the API out in the open, it's much more
difficult/ problematic to change it.

Yeah, I'd tend to agree here. Let's see if we get some contributions on it and how it plays out for us.

I think it does, since it focuses on primitives.

I'm neutral... maybe let it marinate longer in Mahout, prove it's used
and worthwhile and such?
I think the question will be, well, doesn't that conflict with Commons
Collections, and so, are we suggesting pushing into Collections, and
can we make an argument that it complements Collections?
