[jira] [Created] (GEOMETRY-49) Remove Point

Baljit Singh created GEOMETRY-49:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Remove Point
                 Key: GEOMETRY-49
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEOMETRY-49
             Project: Apache Commons Geometry
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Baljit Singh


Binding generic interfaces and classes with Point does not have any implications on most classes. Point interface should be removed. For classes that do require a distance method, there should be a Metric<P> (as in metric space) interface. This leads to a much cleaner and consistent API. Also semantically, a point is just a bunch of coordinates, and does not define distance... it is the metric that does.
