Firstly let me thanks for your contribution on PSO. I am working on a Java application which needs PSO library. Is the project mature enough as an alternative to jswarm-pso (on sourceForge)? Will you publish it on maven?

Actually, it might be considered as a kind of fork of jswarm-pso - I did not change the core algorithms, but I refactored the code, added some extension points to make it more robust and adaptable to different needs, as well as implemented two optimization strategies. I did use it on one project, and found it working quite effectively. I might publish it on Maven in the future - at the moment I'm planning to do some more research on PSO and other swarm algorithms, and implement them using this framework. Thus it may still need other refactorings in the future

It seems that jswarm-pso is abandoned for a while. I look foward to the maven publish. Again, thank you for making it on github.
