Dear all,

The decompositions in the linear package have been given their own
package... I'm just flagging up a concern (prior to the release of the API
for 2.0) that this might make things tricky in the future. The current
implementations of the decompositions are nice and general, but we will have
implementations that are optimised for the storage types in the future.

Since the decompositions are in a separate package, that means the default
implementations will never be able to access implementation details of the
matrices they are working on. Unless future implementations end up going
into the linear package. That will just get messy and users will be confused
why some decompositions are in "linear" and others are in "decompositions".

I recommend that the decompositions package be simply merged into the linear
package. This is the way we do it in matrix-toolkits-java and to the best of
my knowledge, nobody has complained about that structure for any reason.
