I don't think it is spam. Seemingly someone thinks that a new piece of OSS code,
which does some useful things, may be of interest. It is only marginally
interesting to me, but a few here may actually find it very useful. On the
other hand, I suspect it will be of little interest to somewhere above 90% of
Groklaw regulars. Off topic is exactly what it says, and I think this
qualifies to go there. We have had weirder things. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Now if the post had been done several times... it would be spam for a
different reason.
If the subject of the post can be considered spam, then
anytime someone points out a new Interface for Linux, that should also be
considered spam (just one example). Or perhaps points out a new app for their
phone that they find fascinating... I'm sure you get the idea.
The only
real difference between the current post and others like it is that the poster
didn't bother to express any kind of personal opinion on the software. Which
leads me to have an even higher curiosity as I firmly believe a product should
speak for itself. One shouldn't pay too much attention to the salesman.

Given there are a fair amount of coders, open-source enthusiasts, and
engineers in amongst those just interested in lawsuits concerning such
things; I'd say it's relevant enough to enough of the audience to not eb
considered spam.
It's in off-topic, it is regarding an open-source release (something even
PJ comments on occasionally), and I know I am personally interested. I
think it's fine here.

It's a mathematical library from Google. It solves complicated linear algebra
