Actually it seems like this a valid subproject of a Mahout TLP in its own right, if that would be a useful middle-ground status. > This strikes me as consistent with the idea of marinating with > possible intent that it would become its own thing some day. Yes it's already its own module, which helps manage it independently. At the moment that means anyone can depend on it, and only it, via Maven, which is 80% of the value. I think it probably needs a fair bit of API rethinking and cleanup to truly stand as a general purpose and reusable component, but that can happen.
