Thoughts on timeline for first release?

Just curious, what are people thinking about the timeline for a first,
very early release, like an 0.1 release? any open tasks that I could
pick up to help?

Without rushing anything, I'm keen to retire my current project site
and forward everybody that's interested to Mahout. As long as there's
a .jar distro someone can pick up and use, that's cool.

Task 1 is completed and R is running :). Maybe this afternoon you can 
give me the cooks tour?

Sorry, didn't mean to sound like that.

I am happy to build the data sets!

I can also demo R for you this evening.

Ok, ok, UNCLE!

Things to do:

Now I have at least two reasons to do that<grin>

It is also the work of a moment to build some synthetic data sets using R.
Real data is cooler, though.

Do these 5 suffice:

http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets.html?format=&task=clu&att=&area=&numAtt=&numIns=&type=&sort=attUp&view=table

The classification data sets are also reasonable to try with clustering.
The Irises dataset and the Japanese vowels are both plausible for clustering
(inter alia, of course).

Re: Thoughts on timeline for first release?

Posted by Jeff Eastman <je...@windwardsolutions.com>.
Does anybody have some links to datasets we can use for clustering 
examples? I'm thinking we could publish an EC2 AMI that includes Hadoop 
and Mahout, along with a script to deploy it on a cluster, upload the 
examples and run clustering on it. Is that too ambitious? I'm kinda 
hoping that we can use 0.17 which advertises simpler EC2 deployment than 
0.16. If that won't meet our schedule then maybe I should work through 
the 0.16 deployment.

The possible outstanding questions are...

- fully merge taste-build.xml into build.xml?
- put that documentation somewhere else in the documentation tree?

more work continues besides that on the code but as far as I am
concerned it is complete and stable and releasable.

I was thinking we should get the Taste stuff in (seems to be pretty  
close to done) and I would like to get Mahout-9 (Naive Bayes) in.   
This would give us a pretty nice release, I think.  Namely, a couple  
of clustering implementations, a classifier, and, of course, Taste.  I  
think I can finish up my part in the next week or so.  Then, we will  
need to start to figure out all the fun of releases (signatures,  
notices.txt, etc.)  I'd also like to see us have an easy to use demo  
of the clustering stuff, but it is all right if we don't.
