I am not much of R user but I am interested to see how well we can integrate the two. I would be happy to help.

Yep, ok.

I imagine it has to be an R module so I can set up a maven project
with java/R code tree (I have been doing that a lot lately). Or if you
have a template to look at, it would be useful i guess too.
No, please go right ahead.

I'd like it to be separate at first, but I am happy to help. Github repo?

Ok maybe there's a benefit to try a JRI/RJava prototype on top of
Crunch for something simple. This should both save time and prove or
disprove if Crunch via RJava integration is viable.

On my part i can try to do it within Crunch framework or we can keep
it completely separate.

Hello,

I was pretty excited to learn of Google's experience of R mapping of
flume java on one of recent BARUGs. I think a lot of applications
similar to what we do in Mahout could be prototyped using flume R.

I did not quite get the details of Google implementation of R mapping,
but i am not sure if just a direct mapping from R to Crunch would be
sufficient (and, for most part, efficient). RJava/JRI and jni seem to
be a pretty terrible performer to do that directly.


on top of it, I am thinknig if this project could have a contributed
adapter to Mahout's distributed matrices, that would be just a very
good synergy.

Is there anyone interested in contributing/advising for open source
version of flume R support? Just gauging interest, Crunch list seems
like a natural place to poke.

Thanks .

-Dmitriy
