Sean Owen updated MAHOUT-510:
-----------------------------

    Attachment: MAHOUT-510_part_2.patch

As an encore, I did find more use of JSON and here's another change as a 
result. It came up while looking at the vector-related Driver classes, which 
have an option to dump to SequenceFile or JSON. I removed the JSON option, 
though it could be left in as a "dump as some text" option though I don't know 
if that's useful or just more confusing. I renamed the "JWriter*" classes as 
they no longer involve "J"SON.

> 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
