Road Map

[dpo]

Here are some of the steps that need to happen before a release:

• Add tests for everything
• Move factorizations to CySparse
• Move iterative methods to PyKrylov
• Move NLPy to the optimizers organization
• Integrate the simplified slack model
• Use try blocks to check for optional dependencies at run time
• precon/pycfs will be replaced by lldl
• ensure all code is PEP8 and PEP257 compliant

What do we do with propack?

I've been using Propack to approximate eigenvalues or singular values. For example I approximate the smallest eigenvalue of H and then shift H as in modified Newton. If it doesn't fit anywhere, it could be in its own module.
