Mentor recruit for Hama project

["Edward J. Yoon" <ed...@udanax.org>]

Hello all,

The Hama team is looking for a couple more mentor volunteers in
addition to our current volunteers (Ian & Jeff). We really want to be
accepted into incubator status and we realize we need to learn more of
the culture of the Apache community so that we can work effectively
with the Incubator and with the other communities that are important
to our proposal (Hadoop, Hbase and Mahout).

The Hama domain of parallel matrix computation is very challenging and
has been the target of significant mathematical and computer science
research. We believe that the benefits of supporting large matrix
computations efficiently on very large scale Hadoop clusters are
immense and we have great enthusiasm for this endeavor. With hard work
and the support of the larger Apache community we believe we can be
successful.

Best regards,
Edward

Thank you for your reply, And yes, we intended to be a standalone
project; Overall concept is based on hadoop and hbase. However, We
hope it can also be adaptable to other distributed computing
environments.

Thanks,
Edward

Hi Edward,

I think you're going to be in for some significant challenges in
growing a community in what appears to be a fairly specialised field -
but if you're up for that challenge I will be happy to mentor the
project, so you can go ahead and add my name.

Just to clarify - this is intended to be a standalone project, not a
subproject of hadoop?

Thanks,
Brett
