Now that FPG has been resurrected for 0.9, there is one another FPG implementation that was submitted and is pending review. See
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1355. On Wednesday, January 22, 2014 10:15 PM, Ted Dunning <ted.dunn...@gmail.com> wrote: There is no assignment of these things. Anybody can contribute. If you contribute regularly, then the component will survive. The first things to do to help the PFGP component survive are to 1) do a quick scan of the history of the component both in JIRA and in the mailing list archives 2) do a quick scan of the recent alternative algorithms and summarize the options 3) make a plan to address the problems that were found in (1) and justify switching to an option from (2) if you want to. The good news for you is that since this component is designated for removal now, you have essentially no compatibility concerns. You can support the current component or come up with a modified or even entirely new component that does the same thing. This conversation should probably move to d...@mahout.apache.org at this point.
