Tunneling (rat-holing?) into the cross-recommender and Solr+Mahout version.

Things to note:
1) The pure Mahout XRecommenderJob needs a cross-LLR or a cross-similairty job. 
Currently there is only cooccurrence for sparsification, which is far from 
optimal. This might take the form of a cross RSJ with two DRMs as input. I 
can't commit to this but would commit to adding it to the XRecommenderJob.
2) output to Solr needs a lot of options implemented and tested. The hand-run 
test should be made into some junits. I'm slowly doing this.
3) the Solr query API is unimplemented unless someone else is working on that. 
I'm building one in a demo site but it looks to me like a static recommender 
API is not going to be all that useful and maybe a document describing how to 
do it with the Solr query interface would be best, especially for a first step. 
The reasoning here is that it is so tempting to mix in metadata to the 
recommendation query that a static API is not so obvious. For the demo site the 
recommender API will be prototyped in a bunch of ways using models and 
controllers in Rails. If I'm the one to do the a Java Solr-recommender query 
API it will be after experimenting a bit. 

Can someone introduce me to Ellen and Tim?

The one large-ish feature that I think would find general use would be a high 
performance classifier trainer.  

Flor cleanup sort of thing it would be good to fully integrate the streaming 
k-means into the normal clustering commands while revamping the command line 
API.  

Dmitriy's recent scala work would help quite a bit before 1.0. Not sure it can 
make 0.9. 

For recommendations, I think that the demo system that pat started with the 
elaborations by Ellen an Tim would be very good to have. 

I would be happy to collaborate with somebody on these but am not at all likely 
to have time to actually do them end to end.
