Mailing List Summary: User list discussions are currently focussed primarily on bug reporting and helping new users, but very little about future feature work. h5. Developer Mailing List Posting: [http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/mahout-dev/] February 2013, 123 January 2013, 213 Dec 2012, 155 as compared to the same months in previous years: Feb 2012, 578 Jan 2012, 545 Dec 2011, 1079 and Feb 2011, 352 Jan 2011, 473 Dec 2010, 267 We've not had this low developer involvement since the first half of 2009. h5. User Mailing List Posting [http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/mahout-user/] User list discussions are primarily in support of very new users, as well as bug reporting on released versions (0.6 and sometimes even 0.5), highlighting the need for 0.8 to be released. While the traffic to the user mailing list has gone down slightly from previous years: Feb 2012, 288 Jan 2012, 367 Feb 2011, 359 Jan 2011, 458 Feb 2010, 497 Jan 2010, 272 , it is not a dramatic decrease, as there is still considerable interest in the user community. h3. Summary: How has the project developed since the last report: A 1.0 release is not yet on the horizon. == Milestones == 1.) Working towards a 0.8 release 2.) Development on new, faster clustering code Change your notification preferences: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/users/viewnotifications.action
