new Mahout book
Dear Friends,
after several months of hard work, I am proud to announce that my book
is available on the Amazon web site!
Quick link:Apache Mahout Cookbook <http://goo.gl/YnRbN5>
"Apache Mahout Cookbook" provides a fresh, scope-oriented approach to
the Mahout world for both beginners as well as advanced users.
The book gives an insight on how to write different data mining
algorithms to be used in the Hadoop environment and choose the best one
suiting the task in hand.
Using this book you will learn how to:
- Configure from scratch a full development environment for Mahout with
NetBeans and Maven
- Handle sequencefiles for better performance
- Query and store results into an RDBMS system with SQOOP
- Use logistic regression to predict the next step
- Understand text mining of raw data with Naïve Bayes
- Create and understand clusters
- Customize Mahout to evaluate different cluster algorithms
If we can meet I can sign your copy so in the event of my untimely
death, you could have an author signed copy to sell on Ebay.
Me and the publisher we are really eager to receive your feedback and
suggestions, please feel free to ping me with your comments!

Ha - found it :)
For other committers wondering where these changes end up in case such a
diff does not make it to the dev list:
Got to http://cms.apache.org - there find "mahout", click on "force new
clone of anonymous working copy" - in there you can find the diff and commit
it.
Now the only thing that's left me wondering is why no diff made it to any of
our lists.
> I am sorry for not knowing how to use the cms
No need to be sorry - all went correct on your side. Mahout itself switched
to Apache CMS only recently, so at least me, I'm not yet familiar with all
processes myself.
Thanks for being a guinea pig and helping with figuring out where anonymous
commits end up.

Sorry for abusing you as a guinea pig here - this is the first
time I'm dealing with doc contributions from non-committers:
I'd have expected a diff of your changes being mailed to the dev list
after you edited the page, however I don't see it. Can you please
quickly describe what you did and whether you hit the "send diff"
button?
Thanks,
Isabel

Thanks Ted
Even if I think that compare to yours this is a more basic level.
