The proposed commons-filter is not a spin out. There was one filter in math and it didn't belong there. 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.


It sounds like you can create your new component on top of math4, correct?

Would you rather reply to the technical arguments put forward in the
preceding paragraph?

I've already answered your question many times (see the archive).

You do not need anything else? Aside from a better component name IMO.
"filter" is way to generic for me.

Is that the crux of the matter?
"Math" wasn't too generic perhaps?
