My thoughts were that examples would be like toy examples (not suitable for production) that might be used, say, for unittesting. Applications would be full-fledged ready to run applications that should have perhaps a supporting input format for actual data.

the examples package?

HI Nicolas,

I'd be interested in seeing this algorithm implemented in Giraph. My
suggestion would be to put it directly in Giraph.  We should create a new
maven module called giraph-applications and then maybe something like
org.apache.giraph.application.**affinity package.  You can see
org.apache.giraph.examples as an example. We should also move the other
actual applications out of examples so that they are easier to run.  Anyone
else have any thoughts?

I am not sure what you think by integration, but I am implementing the
affinity propagation algorithm proposed by Frey and Dueck [1]. And Giraph
is a perfect fit for the implementation. And I was wondering, if I have the
opportunity to contribute that implementation, where should I post it ?
Giraph since it is based on it ? Or Mahout along with the other clustering
algorithm ?

I just subscribed to mahout-dev@ in case some discussion starts there
too.

  Hi fellow Giraphers,
on Mahout's dev@ mailinglist, there is a discussion about a potential
(experimental) future integration of Giraph. Might be good to hear your
opinion about that.

Best,
Sebastian
