LinAlg API: Contributors needed

Contributors needed

There is already a stable realease of LinAlg API available on the project homepage at linalg.dev.java.net along with some GUI demos i have written.

Anyone who is interested in contributing to LinAlg API is welcome since LinAlg API is an opensource project. If you want to contribute send me an email via the project homepage and indicate in the subject line what you want to contribute. Basically you are free to pick the feature you like but there are some Todo issues open i would like to see in LinAlg API. You can also write some GUI apps if you want to - just have a look at the existing LinAlg API demos.

Thanks very much.

• How does LinAlg compare to Commons Math?

• LinAlg is under GPL 2 and its differently implemented. Its hard to compare these two until you have worked with both.

• One thing i am planning to do is to add a 64 Bit versin of LinAlg API which is just a matter of compiling it on a 64 Bit machine. Another thing is that you can add other algorithms, features you like.

• Hi Alex, I was interested in having a look at the source to see if this was completely over my head or if it might be possible that I might have something to contribute, but using the CVS checkout instructions on the project homepage only gave me an index.html page?

• Hi Lars,
  There seems to be a problem with the CVS checkout/import system at java.net. I use WinCVS and try to solve the problem. However you can easily download the Source bundles from the directory/files site of LinAlg API or just send me an email with a request for source files.
