Perhaps we should solicit input on removing Json from our user
community too? I'd hate to whipsaw our customers as there is little cost
in leaving it in where it is in already. It's really a hygiene issue,
imho. I'd like to understand how it is being used first.

Standardize serialization mechanisms

Key: MAHOUT-510

Project: Mahout
Issue Type: Task
Affects Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Sean Owen
Fix For: 0.5
At the moment this is tracking a broader concern: to standardize as much as possible how
we approach serialization. The long-term goal is notionally to use the following
"encodings" as the input/output of Mahout stuff, and by extension, probably
internally too.
- Text
- Vector Writable
- (maybe Avro)
not
- Serializable
- GSON / JSON
