Congratulations to Andrew. Would be nice to have some information/background on how PMC evaluated Andrew to become committer. Also would be nice what future aspects/algorithms of machine learning is mahout is going to focus on.
I have been keen to maintain code for one of the projects and mistakenly I spent time on developing map reduce version of weighted linear regression solutions procedure. Only recently I saw mahout's webpages are updated. Would appreciate any advice from Andrew and other PMC members.
