Aditya, Welcome to mahout, you can start by taking a look at the plan I've outlined in the JIRA to Trevor and others and add your comments there for tracking purposes, I am looking to get a shell API up for review in its very crude state hopefully in the next week or two based on the outlined plan. Also depending on your experience level it may be worthwhile to solve a few simple issues first which require getting your hands into the code, for example unit tests are a good place to do that to understand the Samsara framework before implementing any large algorithm. My 2 cents for what its worth. Use the dev list for help as needed.

I was looking through the list of issues and found issue 1941 and was wondering if there is an opportunity to contribute there. In general, I would be grateful if you could guide me on how I can make myself useful to Apache Mahout. Awaiting your reply. Regards, Aditya
