Suggestion: * keep as many package names as possible (i.e. org.apache.commons.math.*) * deprecate as few packages (classes) as possible * introduce new packages as org.apache.commons.mathx.* (notice x instead of 2, and only for new, incompatible stuff) Yes, this would increase the codebase to maintain, but isn't there more than one way to compute things? I have no clue whether it'd be tractable, that's just my 2 cents (java.awt / javax.swing made think of that). Anyway, I completely agree to prevent any jar hell issue, so +0 (non-binding) for package renaming to org.apache.commons.math2.* -- Cyril Briquet
