Ted Dunning commented on MAHOUT-716:
------------------------------------

Hector, I can't get to this right now because of other issues (traveling, at a 
conference and so on).

Don't let me slow you down.  Clone a git repo and go forward assuming success.  
We will fix up the patches
progressively and you can rebase later developments against trunk as things go 
along.

You should be able to make progress at full speed this way and the only delays 
will be a slight delay in adoption
of improvements by others.  The uptake of new methods are bounded by social 
factors in any case and will not happen
on the same time scale in any case.
