The maintainer of FPG algorithm

If it is available, then I also want to become a maintainer of FGP
algorithm.

Thanks

Yes.  That's the idea.

The rationale is that we want users to have good, well-maintained software.

The only way to do that is to remove unmaintained software.

So is the bottom line if the code isnt maintained its dropped from the distro?

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.

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 dev@mahout.apache.org at this
point.

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.
