Description

Context: at the moment Apache Commons Math can't be compiled using GWT (to allow it to be made into a JavaScript library for example)
http://www.gwtproject.org/

Is there any interest in allowing Apache Commons Math to be officially supported on GWT?

With GWT 2.8.0 the changes needed aren't too hard to get most of it to compile
