Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-510:
----------------------------------
Ted are you saying it's simply sufficient to retain the Writable-related
methods like writeBinary() and readBinary()? That's quite simple, I can do that.
> Standardize serialization mechanisms

> 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.

> - Vector Writable
