Hi Yash,
Helping hands are always welcome! There are several things that you
could work on in our CF code.
With regards to documentation, the following things need to be done:
MAHOUT-1446 Create an intro for matrix factorization
MAHOUT-1485 Clean up Recommender Overview page
MAHOUT-1495 Create a website describing the distributed item-based
recommender
Another very important issue would be to make sure the Hadoop-based
recommenders run on Hadoop 2
Best,
Sebastian

Hey All,
I am Yash, a bigdata engineer and an opensource fan. I have been a Mahout
user for sometime now and am interested in giving back to the community.
I am digging mahout source currently and am interested in contributing
towards the Collaborative Filtering part.
I am interested in contributing both in terms of code and documents/wiki
posts etc.
I am browsing through the JIRA currently to see active sections of CF.
Is there any specific part of CF that I must have a look into and start
exploring.
What are the areas that might be a good place to start contributing?
Suggestions?
Peace,
Yash
