George,

The recommender system project at HP Labs is a research project and has 
no targeted release date, yet; we are planning to release the code as an 
add-on in the future.

A technical report will be published which explains what we have done 
and how we have done it. I'll send an email to the list when the report 
is available.

- Desmond
