Re: [science-iwg] Apache Commons Math 3 and similar cases

Hi Werner,

I think your concerns are unfounded. The discussion earlier just pointed out that certain classes were problematic. As it tuned out that was not the case. We can now use the JAR as it is. Which is of course much better than having to modify, repackage and _rebrand_ it. I don’t think anyone here will find it OK to have a modified version of any official release posing as the real deal.

Best regards,
Torkild

It wouldn't be OK to rip something out, Apache simply doesn't allow it, nor would e.g. Eclipse like a JAR file that's missing a core class or bundle making it incompatible?;-)
