Dmitriy Lyubimov commented on MAHOUT-1529:
------------------------------------------

ok i started nudging this a bit forward, did a couple of fairly drastical 
refactoring, moving api parts to math-scala. math-scala should compile . 
Decompositions are moved too.

Things left include moving package-level routines requiring implicit context; 
fixing spark and spark-shell modules; moving tests where appropriate. 

With tests. a little conundrum is such that we don't have a "local" engine -- 
we would use "Spark local" for that, i.e. some concrete engine. So even though 
decomposition code now completely lives in math-scala with no spark 
dependencies, it looks like its tests will still have to live in spark module, 
where unit-testing in local spark mode is defined. It kinda makes sense, since 
we probably will want to run MathSuite separately for each engine we add; but 
is a bit weird since it keeps something like ssvd() and its engine-specific 
tests apart.

> We have a few situations when algorithm-facing API has Spark dependencies 
> creeping in. 
> In particular, we know of the following cases:
> -(1) checkpoint() accepts Spark constant StorageLevel directly;-
> (2) certain things in CheckpointedDRM;
> (3) drmParallelize etc. routines in the "drm" and "sparkbindings" package. 
> (5) drmBroadcast returns a Spark-specific Broadcast object
