The Apache Commons team is pleased to announce the release of version 2.0 of Commons Math.  Commons Math is a library of lightweight, self-contained mathematics and statistics components addressing the most common problems not available in the Java programming language or Commons Lang.

Version 2.0 is a major release, including bug fixes, new features and enhancements to existing features.  Most notable among the new features are matrix decomposition algorithms, sparse matrices and vectors, genetic algorithms, new optimization algorithms, curve fitting algorithms,  state derivatives in ODE step handlers,  new multistep integrators,  multiple regression, correlation, rank transformations and Mersenne twister pseudo random number generator.

This release is NOT source and binary compatible with earlier versions of Commons Math.  Starting with version 2.0 of the  library, the minimal version of the Java platform required to compile and use commons-math is Java 5.
Source and binary distributions are available for download from the Apache Commons Math download site:

I'd like to announce that Commons CLI 1.2 has been released. Commons CLI provides an API for processing command line interfaces.

This is a minor release, containing the last 2 years of bugfixes and minor improvements to the CLI codebase. Full details of this can be found in the release notes:

   http://commons.apache.org/cli/release_1_2.html

The major item of note is an accidental change of behaviour between CLI 1.0 and CLI 1.1 (as noted in CLI-137) that has now been reverted.

For more information on Commons CLI, please visit the CLI website:

The CLI jars have have been uploaded to the Maven repository, and CLI is also available in either binary or source form from:
