[VOTE] Release Commons Math 1.1

Please download and test the (hopefully final) Commons Math 1.1 release 
candidate here:

http://people.apache.org/~psteitz/commons-math/1-1-rc2/

The following bug fixes have been made since 1.1 RC1:

* Added protection against numerical overflow and underflow in the 
isBracketing method (BZ 36232).
* Fixed division by zero error in rounding methods (BZ 36300).
* Added upper tail cumulative probability method to 
HypergeometricDistributionImpl (BZ 36215).
* Added better handling of numerical overflow and division by zero in 
Complex calculations (BZ 36205).
* Changed ContinuedFraction to better handle infinite convergents that 
resulted in divergent continued fraction evaluations (BZ 36105).
* Changed rounding methods to not rely on BigDecimal conversions which was 
causing numerical error (BZ 35904).

There are no open bugs remaining against the 1.1 sources.

Release notes are available here:

http://people.apache.org/~psteitz/commons-math/1-1-rc2/RELEASE-NOTES.txt

Votes, please. The vote will run for 72 hours.

Yah, the maven dist plugin really should do this by default.

Thanks, Brent! That does the trick. Unfortunately, there is no clean way to 
do it in a pregoal. I have patched the maven dist plugin to take care of it 
(MPDIST-27).

How about adding a call to Ant's fixcrlf task inside our dist:build-bin and
dist:build-src pregoals?

 That is true, but I compiled the unit tests under 1.3 and they ran 
successfully against the release jars. The tests have pretty good path 
coverage. The compile target is also set to 1.3. Do you still think it is 
necessary to compile using 1.3?

b) text files, including the NOTICE and LICENSE use Unix line endings.

 Anyone know how to fix this?

-0

a) My general point about the JDK the release was compiled under. The 
manifest says 1.4, but I believe [math] targets earlier JDKs.

b) text files, including the NOTICE and LICENSE use Unix line endings. 
This is a debated point, but I always prefer to see at least the zips 
use Windows line endings.

BTW the RELEASE-NOTES.txt appears to be UTF-8 rather than
plain ASCII or ISO-8859-1. What's the policy here?

Sorry, guys, but I am now seeing 36450 (which showed up just after this VOTE 
kicked off) as a show-stopper. I will fix this and roll a new RC (including 
line-ending fix) and kick off a new VOTE this weekend.

I regret and apologize for not participating for quite some time, family and
work have been unusually urgent concerns.  Consider my vote supportive of (but
largely uninformed) releasing 1.1, except for the impression I've gotten from
skimming some of the list traffic and Bugzilla reports.
