Wow, very nice. I'm the guy to talk to. I had taken a crack at SVD-related implementations a few years ago and found it too complicated for my brain, and too slow. It is good to hear you have had success. It has been some time since I myself added any new algorithms.
Perhaps the more experienced Apache folk can comment on this -- is this significant enough of a contribution that it needs a software grant agreement of some kind? Or is it OK to open a JIRA issue, attach a patch, and confirm there that it is granted to the ASF? Beyond that, the next step is to open an issue at http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT and attach a patch which includes the changes. I can commit it, then I will probably have some tweaks and other changes I would like to make, which we can collaborate on.
