This is a good strategy, and I am happy to start the discussion, but I
wonder if it might help build consensus if somebody else started the ball
rolling.
Let's take the next from our homepage as starting point. What should we
add/remove/modify?

The Mahout community decided to move its codebase onto modern data
processing systems that offer a richer programming model and more
efficient execution than Hadoop MapReduce. Mahout will therefore reject
new MapReduce algorithm implementations from now on. We will however
keep our widely used MapReduce algorithms in the codebase and maintain them.
We are building our future implementations on top of a DSL for linear
algebraic operations which has been developed over the last months.
Programs written in this DSL are automatically optimized and executed in
parallel on Apache Spark.
Furthermore, there is an experimental contribution undergoing which aims
to integrate the h20 platform into Mahout.
