-----------------------------------

Hi, I plan to work on it next week. Detect convergence may not be M/R related. 
If we would port the ALS to spark, we probably also need to auto detect 
convergence. What do you think? And what is the plan to port the ALS to spark?

> Build tools around mahout to check the training error of factorization and 
> automatically detect convergence

> The goal of this task is to check the training error of the factorization 
> during the computation to make it automatically detect convergence.  The goal 
> is not to have to specify the number of iterations as a parameter needed for 
> convergence.
