Question re cluster-reuters.sh

Hi

I have tried to follow/execute the steps described at

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Quick+tour+of+text+analysis+using+the+Mahout+command+line

but had trouble to do so, because for example 
|org.apache.lucene.benchmark.utils.ExtractReuters does not seem to be  
contained by mahout-distribution-0.8.

Then I have found

mahout-distribution-0.8/examples/bin/build-reuters.sh

and was running it successfully.

If I understand the script is doing basically the same as described at

|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Quick+tour+of+text+analysis+using+the+Mahout+command+line

right? If so, then I would be happy to update the Wiki accordingly.

Also I have found the following post

http://bickson.blogspot.ch/2011/09/understanding-mahout-k-means-clustering.html

which seems to describe quite nicely what is happening behind the scenes.

I think it would also make sense to add these notes to the Wiki, or WDYT?

Thanks

Michael

Thanks Suneel for confirming

Will try to understand it better and then probably post more questions.

Thanks

Michael.

1. build-reuters.sh is to be be retired, use cluster-reuters.sh instead.
2. You are correct, the script does what's been described in the wiki link.
