Hi David, Welcome into Mahout =) The "How To Contribute" Wiki page is a must read, it gives you a quick overview about all you'll need to when contributing to Mahout.
In my own experience you'll also need to: * know how to build the latest version of Mahout: http://cwiki.apache.org/MAHOUT/buildingmahout.html although, depending on your project you may skip the Taste Web part if you're not working with Taste. * know how to run an example in Hadoop, at least in pseudo-distributed: http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/current/quickstart.html --- En date de : Mar 21.4.09, David Hall <d...@cs.stanford.edu> a écrit : > De: David Hall <d...@cs.stanford.edu> > Objet: Re: [GSOC] Accepted Students > À: mahout-dev@lucene.apache.org > Date: Mardi 21 Avril 2009, 8h30 > On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 11:18 PM, > deneche abdelhakim <a_dene...@yahoo.fr> > wrote: > > > > Hi, > > > > =D > > > > I've been accepted.
