[Math] Java 8?
Hi.
Any objection to requiring Java 8 for building "Commons Math"?
Regards,
Gilles

I was asking about the (defunct) "Commons Math", as it serves
as the main testing ground for split off components, and new
ones ("Statistics", "Geometry") are likely to make sense,
community-wise, if they allow usage of modern Java.
"Commons RNG" will probably remain at Java 6 (exception made
for module "commons-rng-examples" that will allow anything
required to build new examples).
For "Numbers", it is not obvious: some utilities would require
Java 8+, while others could be considered feature-complete,
not necessitating more than Java 7.
I was thinking of deciding on a module basis.

Gilles

Yes, branch, but also the split off modules (e.g., numbers, statistics,
rng).

I'm not sure I understand the question; are there more
than one "Commons Math"?
Perhaps you mean "which branch?"; then "master" and (all
new feature branches) would be the answer.

Which Commons Math? None from me, though.
