Now we have at least couple of people around who know signal processing and would like to make a commons-filter package. Virtually none of which is coming from commons-math except dependencies. Does such a package suit commons? I think so. Filtering is needed from image processing to statistics. Others can vote no if they disagree. Complex was in math too. Did it belong there? In C++ or Python, complex is just another data type, like String. Its placement in math was not straightforward. A self contained component to handle complex data types seems more sensible to me than having it in Math. In any case Gilles is making me a branch to populate, so that I can propose this component later, IIUC. Eric
