Apache Lab: ASF Community recommendations
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: LABS-508
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LABS-508
             Project: Labs
          Issue Type: Umbrella
            Reporter: Oscar Castaneda


Develop an Apache Lab for "ASF Community recommendations". The goal of the lab 
would be to host a web application that issues recommendations to ASF 
committers for source code files they might be interested to co-author with 
others. The building blocks for the Lab have been laid out and developed in 
previous GSoC projects completed by the volunteering mentor. The building 
blocks consist of 1) SVNPlot and 2) WebDSL with Apache Mahout integrated 
recommenders. These are technologies that a GSoC student could successfully 
leverage for the benefit of Apache communities through the proposed Apache Lab.

The volunteering mentor for this idea recently developed a sub-language for 
collaborative filtering in WebDSL which integrates Apache Mahout recommenders 
[1]. By extending SVNPlot scripts from mentor's prior GSoC project [2] and 
integrating them into WebDSL + Apache Mahout recommendation framework it would 
be possible to generate recommendations based on commits from the ASF's 
subversion repository. Producing these recommendations on demand would be the 
goal of the proposed lab.

The motivation for the proposed Apache Lab is to increase collaboration within 
and across ASF (incubator) communities based on source code co-authorship.
