Relation of MOO.jl to Milt Output Optimize

[KZiemian]

I was making timestamps to Cows, Lakes, and a JuMP extension... talk from JuliaCon 2017 and I was searching for link for MOO and Moa.jl. Now I quite confused, which is which. Can someone explain to me how this currently works?

MOO.jl is unrelated.

For the cow stuff:

Maintained (you can use and will work):

There is one generic library for SDDP:

• https://github.com/odow/SDDP.jl

Unmaintained (won't work, and won't be able to install. For interest only):

There are three "application" examples:

• https://github.com/odow/MOO
• https://github.com/odow/MilkPOWDER
• https://github.com/odow/MilkPOWDERII

and a dynamic programming library:

• https://github.com/odow/DynamicProgramming.jl

Thank you for explanation. I guess a lot of names changed in the 5 years that pass. Can I ask about what happened to Moa.jl? Should I point people to SDDP.jl? Current state of timestamps is below, but I need to make hyperlinks to work correctly. Of course, timestamps maybe not good and need a improvements.

Moa.jl became SDDP.jl.

If you're interested in this, send me an email (https://odow.github.io) and we can discuss further. This doesn't need to be on GutHub.
