I would have liked to ask Niels Elken Sønderbys (in CC here) if he would
merge his
SVJD code (
http://www.nielses.dk/quantlib/nesquant/) into QuantLib before
the next release. I don't remember if he is already a quantlib-dev
subscriber: if I didn't invite you before Niels, please accept my apologies
and consider this an open invitation.
To add the code should be easy enough, but it would make sense to add a
unit test too.
Of course we might just add SVJD for 0.3.5, especially if the merge+test
take longer than 1 week.
BTW Niels: please consider to actively work on the current CVS, I grant you
we will make it clear what your (master thesis) work consists ;-)
Another thing I would like to have fixed is the broken Borland
documentation. Luigi: I'm sure it will take few minutes of your time ;-)
A 0.3.4 related issue: I would like to remove my personal address
[hidden email] (which I'm going to suspend for a few months due to
excessive spam > 300 messages per day) from the "You should have received a
copy of the license along with this program; if not, please email
[hidden email]" file header. Suggestion about which address could
be used instead? What about
[hidden email] ?

since you were planning to be backward compatible for one release on
namespace flattening, why don't we do it for 0.3.4?
