I've raised a GitHub PR [1] to add the Java 9 module name to [math] on
the MATH_3_X branch. Assuming that is merged, I'm willing to raise
another PR with the necessary bits to prepare the repo to release
v3.6.2.

This approach sidesteps all issues with commons-4 and does the minimum
necessary for downstream users to use the project as a module in Java
9 onwards. (At my day job we produce open source that depends on
commons-math, which means I can't add a module-info.java until
commons-math has a module name.)

While I'm technically still a commons committer, I think it would be
highly innappropriate for me to try and shepherd the actual v3.6.2
release. Is anyone willing to work with me to do the release? A v3.6.2
release would contain just the module name change and one performance
improvement that was added to the repo in 2016, so it should be a case
of cranking the handle providing not too much has changed in the
process since 2016.

thanks
Stephen
